Windows Explorer Integration Features

Deep-Sky Planner supports several Windows Explorer integration features that make opening, printing and creating HTML or formatted text reports from a saved document a snap.  The screen shots below depict these capabilities using Windows Vista, but they work the same way with previous versions of Windows too.  Note that the document file(s) must be created and saved previously with  Deep-Sky Planner, and that open, print and export functions are available from within Deep-Sky Planner too.

Opening document(s) by dragging and dropping from Windows Explorer or the desktop onto Deep-Sky Planner is also supported.
