Dear Jim, Rather than reading the file, could you import it into the "internal" database within Rev and then undertake your data manipulation? The database engine will be more optimised for large table sorts etc.

The "read file..." and "put it into tempvar" command work very quickly. When I search the data in tempvar, the repeat command works quickly for the first 1000 lines or so then things slow down dramatically. I tested it with a scrollbar being updated for every line and 1000 seems to be the break point. Using "Find..." in excel works very quickly but the same file in my stack is slow. I'll be loading my app onto 20 or so other users so a database may not be an option unless I can load it into the stack (never tried to include an actual database in my apps).Any ideas on how to search through csv files that are 2000 to 7000 lines?Thanks in advanceJim..._______________________________________________use-revolution mailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences:http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
