Editing body text in MobileOrg

Editing body text in MobileOrg

Hi folks,

I'm missing something really simple here, but I just can't put my finger on
it.

I want to use MobileOrg to record data that I can eventually upload to
emacs. The data file (in emacs) consists of a single table. However, when I
sync it to MobileOrg the file appears to be empty. The details page contains
no text, and viewing as a document produces a blank page.

All of my other files in MobileOrg work as expected, although they are more
'traditional' tree style outlines.

What am I missing here?

Sorry folks,

It turns out I wasn't replying to the list. Here's the thread for posterity.

Hi Richard,

I've found the problem. It turns out that my file didn't have a .org
extension. Once I added that, everything worked fine. I knew it was
something simple...!

Thanks for your help and such a useful application.

Hmm, I just tried this as test.org and it worked:
