How hard would it be for me to say have the tables Residential & Commercial in my database and have them gather all of their cell values (on query) from text files named in conjunction with the table i.e Residential.txt & Commercial.txt. I assume they' ll be in the same folder (fpdb), but it really doesn' t matter where I put them I guess so long as it works. I just need an easier way around updating this database, and since I' m given the text files on a daily basis... I tend to wonder if it would just be easier to simply upload the text files and have my database gather the information for me when it is needed. Anyone got any ideas? Please let me know :) -Aveed-

Basically copy > paste the info in the .txt file into the form and submit... Would something like that work? _____________________________ In order to remove a wall you must first remove the Windows® (in reply to Aveed)
