The posting in the archives I was reviewing did not mention sync_members. I have a complication, with which I have to contend - besides the dynamic list XXX built from the HR Database, I can have a static file XXXstatic, which contains other subscribers that are not in the HR Database. My script processes this XXXstatic file when it processes the XXX file. To use sync_members I will have to combine the XXX and XXXstatic files, and then use the combined file with sync_members. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Barry S.
