Using excel for a database
I need a database with about 4-500 units (don't know the correct
name), each with 3 posts: name, state, mail-address. I shall be able to export all the mail-adressesn to a txt file, with a comma and a space after each. I already have a txt with about 300 mail adresses, separated by a comma, and for a start, I need excel to import them and place them in the database (but without name and state) Is that possible? Thanks |

Actually no. Dumping them to comma separated text tells us nothing as far as
purpose goes. You can do that any number of ways. Use whatever you're comfortable programming with. -- Regards, Dave Patrick ....Please no email replies - reply in newsgroup.
