Top Post Re: Import Dif Help

[haroldef]

Hi,

What I thought would work did not work.  First I tried:
import dif data=c:\appl\mac_email_address\emailadd.csv
This produced an error message that the file was not a valid dif file.

Then I tried:  import word data=c:\appl\mac_email_address_emailadd.csv
It did not fail, but I could not read anything.

A few days ago I created a program that would export a csv file, 
consisting of the last name, the first name and the email addresses of 
over 500 members of our reunion group.  That was easy as there is advise 
on the fpteck site about creating a program that exports a csv file.

Can someone point me to where I can read about importing a csv file that 
provides more information then that given in the filepro manual?

Harold
