I was actually looking at those. I am trying to get information out of a M$ Access database so I can use it. So far I have been exporting one of the forms which I created in the database and then regexing it with NoteTab to create an initial ini file that I could work with using PP. Then I ran into the problem where I need to access the data from two years at once, so it messed up my ini scheme. I don't know anything about xml, really, except that one can use "categories" and "subcategories". I have thought about using an ini file for each year, which is nice, but I don't have any way to specify the year automatically when I export it from Acess. The most efficient thing to do would be to simply access the database itself using PP, but I don't think PP's database plugins will do that - don't they only use OBDC? Is this something I could do with the COM plugin?
