Thanks for your replies, A database engine is not what I need because I don't know how to do it. I will stick with TXT files. If I follow Henks suggestion I will export every users choice as a seperate file. But how do I collect these? I know how to import just one textfile but how do I import more than one textfile? They will look like this: date_name.TXT
