Export From MicroGrade | Import/Export With WebCT | Import To MicroGrade

Once data has been exported from MicroGrade you are ready to upload the information to WebCT. To do this, login to your WebCT account and navigate to the Manage Students area. You should see a screen similar to the screen displayed on the right.

From the “Select action” popup menu under “Manage Students” choose “Import student data” and click the Go button.


Click the “Browse…” button and follow the steps to upload and then “Pick” your uploaded file. When you return to this screen be sure to change the Separator from the default of Comma to Tab.

This is very important; WebCT cannot process names that contain a comma when the separator is a comma because the standard quote protocol is not supported. Therefore ,MicroGrade exports WebCT data with a Tab separator so that names such as “John Smith, III” can be successful uploaded to WebCT.

Once you have set the Separator to Tab, click Import and your student information will be imported.


Downloading from WebCT

To download information from WebCT navigate to the Manage Students area, as shown in the picture at the top of this page. Then click the “Download” button and a screen similar to the screen displayed on the right will appear.

Again, it is very important to change the Record separator from Comma to Tab. Once you have changed the separator to Tab, click the “Download” button.


A screen similar to the screen displayed on the right will appear.

Choose the option to save the file to disk and click OK.


A final window will appear asking where you wish to save the file as shown on the right.

Choose a convenient location and be sure to name the file with a “.txt” extension by removing the “.wct” from the end of the filename. This completes the download process.
