I posted a similar question about Qued/M about a year ago, and
someone out there said they might be able to help. Then it was just
an idea; now it's a *need.*
Has anyone used QuedM's macros to create a summary of text files in
one or more folders? I'm dealing with plain ascii files that all have
a few lines of summary information, then a comprehensive lead paragraph.
I'd like to copy the file _names_ followed by the first 10 lines of the file
into one master document (call it an "abstract" or whatever).
With QuedM's macro capability and it's file "catalog" feature, I suspect
this is possible. Unfortunately, my manual is hiding somewhere and I haven't
had time to search it out. Maybe tonight...
Thanks
