Hi, Charlie and all,

Thanks for such a quick response from all of you! Nice to hear from you all!

Yes, I am setting the import type as WordPerfect merge.  I have a macro that I 
have been using for years to import WP51 merge files into my DP database, and 
it stopped working when I tried to use DP26.  It looks like everything is 
running normally, but once it finishes, when you look at the panel, no records 
have been imported.  So, I tried to do it manually without the macro to try to 
see if I could figure out where the problem was, and it won't work when I do it 
manually, either.  It just says "import finished" but no records were imported.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Laurie

  Laurie,

  You mean it won't import even when you tell DP 2.6 that the Import Type is 
"2", WordPerfect Merge?  It works for me.

    Hello, everyone,

    I just installed the DP2.6Y to try it again after some years (I have been 
using 2.3 all this time), and I think now I remember why I stopped using it all 
those years ago.  I tried to import some WP51 merge files (with the new{END 
FIELD} and {END RECORD} merge codes), and it won't import anything at all. 
Strangely, it will import WordPerfect 4.2 merge files, with the old style ^R 
and ^E merge codes.  Have I done something wrong, or is this a known "feature" 
of DP2.6?

    Thanks!

    Laurie
