planning to use it? It is certainly possible to read a test file into a
recordset and stream it into a string, but I'm not clear on why you want to do
this.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>I'm modifying an A97 database to A2002 and would like to change the data
source of a combo box selection to a tab delimited text file that is updated
every month. Will maintain the same format and will only have 2 fields a # and
a name. Both pieces of data will be stored in the record they are selected for
(so don't need any kind of reference back).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your help.</DIV>
