I am pumped about the rtf method of populating word documents with databased
data.  I am using it to populate student progress report forms.  Very very
slick.  Now I would like to automatically populate a drop down box with the rtf
files available in a particular directory.  I have searched the list archives on
the witango site, and the method proposed in one post was to write a batch file
that does a directory listing and then use the extrenal action to call the batch
file, and access the resultset.  I could use the choicelist tag then to display
the resultset as a drop down list.  Is this still the method of choice?

Also, my hard drive crashed, alas, and I have lost my  book marks to the various
list archives.  I have Ben's site, but the search doesn't seem to be working.
Also, the witango site.  But I thought there was another one with the complete
archives.  Can some one help?

Thanks,

John Newsom
