Yes, you can use inline prompting to read a record, an attribute,
value or sub-value from a file. The syntax is:
<<F(filename,itemid{,attribute{,value{,subvalue}}}),text>>
It's been a while since I last used this and who knows what changes
have been made since release 7! I don't remember whether the text is
required or what it would be used for. The manual says no spaces are
allowed. Give it a try.

Is there a way to read from a file from within a Paragraph ? I
