I don't feel like explaining this, and I don't expect anyone else does either. It takes some explaining. Check the Pokertracker website and make sure you have the latest patch. There is a help file explaining how to import Party histories, which includes how to import observed hands.

Just to sidetrack this thread a little bit.

Is datamining really necessary. I don't bother, but I do open gametime windows for each of my tables, and after the first lap, I have at least an indication of how everyone is playing on my table.

When I play on sites other than party, I consult the exported notes, but I usually don't download my hand histories until after the session, and so I don't even bother with the gametime windows. I think a lot of times, you can get a pretty good read by watching how someone plays a couple of hands to showdown, and that is usually more accurate than what I get from a statistical summary of their play.
