Hi Nicholas,

Is there a simple way to script text importing so that each cr delimited line goes into a field on the next card?
I have a field where I will store the name of a file that will then be imported into another field.
I can see how to import manuaally one card ata a time but can't figure the scripting for it?

Do you mean one separate card for each line in the text-file?


In this case you can script this:
(Supposed you want to create all missing cards for all lines
in the file... You should create a group with a field in it, which has its
"sharedtext" prop set to false and the "backgroundbehaviour" of that group
set to true.)


on mouseup
   put url("file:your_text_file_here.txt") into thetext
    repeat for each line l in thetext
      create cd
      put l into fld “just one line"
    end repeat
    unlock screen
end mouseup

Tested and works :-)

Took 0.5 secs for 1000 lines, not too bad...

thanks

You're welcome...
