I have a directory of members to create. I basically have to lay it out in a structured format - 4 members per page - 700 members in total. The structure for each member is the same, the details of each member are unique, eg: name, address, etc. Is there anybody out there who could point me to a script or tutorial that automatically flow all members details into the document rather than me having to do it manually? I must say that I am new to ID and haven't yet tried scripting - The rest of the program is very impressive though. Thanks in advance. Mat
