For this, and also on using data stacks, look under Help for Revolution Documentation then in the Road Map choose Development Guide, then Files Folders and Resources, and there you will find considerable guidance on the issues about which you ask. By offering you this tour, I hope also to familiarise you more with the documentation itself, which will assist you in the future. Regardless, please come back to me if the reference I gave you is not clear enough, or any time you have a question on any topic. regards David >> >> >> 3) Store your data in a database (like mySQL, Access, etc.) and use >> Rev's >> database features to read and write to the database. > Could I do this with filemaker as well. >> >> >> If you need more help, let us know, >> >> Ken Ray > > > -Tim > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > use-revolution mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution > _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
