• I'm not a GUI/App programmer so I'll have to find another way to test what you propose, Solomon. Shouldn't be too difficult, though.

    If I were an App programmer, I'd write code to make whatever log file you speak of more easily fit the idea of a simple BCP import. Normalization of data isn't reserved to just tables in a database nor any less important outside a database.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
