Hi Gene,

Not that I understand 100% of what you're doing, but I think you're saying
each Excel file has a different ODBC connection, right?

If you have an array that describes all your Excel file connections, then
you can do a Loop on that and use Variables for your datasource connections
- then you only need one Search Action and one set of code (for parsing the
data) for the whole thing.

See http://xmlx.ca/articles/571.aspx

Hope this helps. Cheers....

        Subject: Witango-Talk: Something completely different
        
        

           OK, this may be way off the wall but I figured one of you folks
would have tried this, or know it can't be done. I have a number of excel
spreadsheets that I will be reading data from using Witango. There are about
14 of these sheets and I have working ODBC links to each one of these. Now,
the format of all of these sheets is exactly the same and I need to be able
to create the exact same reports from each of these spreadsheets. Is there
any way I can change the table I'm looking at in either a search action or a
direct DBMS so I can loop through a list of table names and create the
reports without duplicating the code for every table?

           Does this make sense to anyone? *laughs*
