Hi Laurie et al … with great memories of that wonderful reunion in 2004.
Can you export the data to a .csv file and import it into Excel and do the reverse from there? I miss those wonderful WP macros so much, I hope the MS people get a clue sometime. I also miss “Reveal Codes” enormously. All the best to all, Tony From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Laurie Corvacho Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2011 10:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Dataperf] Importing WP51 Merge Files 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 ----- Original Message ----- From: Charles G.

It works for me.

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!
