Importing Use Case Requirements into a new modeling tool

As a manager, I don't get nearly enough time to do the fun, more technical aspects of software development any more.  Still, occasionally I get to do something fun.  Today was one of those days. The system I manage has 180+ use case specifications of varying size and complexity that we use to manage ongoing requirements changes.  Recently, we have been experimenting with moving some of our modeling and requiremements management efforts into a different tool to see how the tool stacks up against our legacy tools.  Anyway, after a little monkeying around with a CSV export file, I was able to get the use case requirements imported into the new tool.  Yay me!  So, that was my highly technical work activity---tomorrow I'm back to management stuff and writing a Service Level Agreement.
