I should think you could sync a database with TB!'s AB by creating a small application (possible with Paradox, DBase, DB/2 and others) that calls up the AB file(s), reads them in, checks for duplicates, deletes them and writes back into an AB file. -- Dierk Haasis http://www.Write4U.de http://Interest.Write4U.de/pongo PGP keys available: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=SendMyPGPkeys The Bat 1.54 Beta/31 on Windows 95 4.0 67306684 C One man is as good as another - until he has written a book.

Re[2]: How to create reports from The Bat! address book.
Shahar, That's a way to do but I would like to avoid such transfer to keep everything in sync. In fact, I'm wandering if the ADB file is not built in a well known format.

You can also use the Microsoft Text driver to create an ODBC data source name that you can link to Access (or any other ODBC client).

Hi, Most of the time, address book are used to store useful information. I would like to create some reports from all this informations. Does anyone know if it is possible to link the ADB file to a reporting tool (ie; Access)?
