If I were going to do that, I'd export record numbers from the found set of names and import them into the actions file. When the import is completed, the found set in the actions file will be the set you just imported. Before losing that set, I'd use the FileMaker Replace function to enter the action, date, issue, source code, etc., into the whole set of records. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
