Thanks Jonathan, I'll wait on the herd to say yea or nay.... By the way, I tried to get the API set up today from the data vendor but they had some questions about the programmer's experience in C & C++, so I emailed the form to him. He had cut his hand badly with a band saw and that really put a delay on coding. If he can get the data from the firm, convert from Windows format to Mac and then get it imported into Filemaker then I will be on your doorstep trying to learn how to set up what I want.....time always stands still.
Hang in there, it may be Christmas morning but I'll be there!!
