Hi Troy,
I might be better off putting it into a few R:Base databases than DBASE files,
but only testing will tell. I thought the same thing about this and I have
wracked my brain to get around this many tables but it appears there is none.
The only way to cut down the number of tables is if we could create a 3
dimensional table and I don't think that is slated for the next version of
R:Base <G>.
Best regards,
Mike Young
