Hi Jerry, If you have the table entered in Excel or AppleWorks or another spreadsheet, you could always export the data using "Save as" in "Text (tab-delimited)" format. Then you can simply put URL "file:<path-to-the-file>" into theData
Now you'll have everything read in a single variable, where the rows are separated by return and the columns by tab ; which you can easily display in a field put theData into field "tableField" If you setup that field with tabStops, and show both the horizontal and vertical grid, you can get a nice look for displaying the data. It's also very easy to convert that variable (where everything is still on several lines) into an array. split theData using return and tab Now you can address any "cell" or "intersection" with put theData[<income>,<children>] Hope this helped, Jan Schenkel.
