I've looked through the manual for the program mentioned in the subject
line but I can't find one function that I need for a database application.
I need a way to read information contained in a generic text file into a
database with minimal hassle. The format of the text file is currently
wide open -- I can take any format as the program which prepares the text
file has not had that part coded yet. I don't want to switch applications,
as there is a fairly large database already prepared using FoxBASE.
Please respond via EMAIL as I am not a regular reader of the comp.sys.mac
groups, since I am not a Mac owner; I just use them at work. If this is
the wrong place, sorry, I couldn't find anywhere else that seemed more
appropriate.
