Right now it goes onto the screen. The problem is that the form overlappes it, I mean, the information is besides the form, so it's hard to see. I was thinking about temproraly hiding the form, and after SQL produced it's result, show it again. Could you advise better approach?

>I didn't mention that once you had your text file, you could APPEND MEMO memofield FROM file.txt to get the info into a table.

Yes, this part I can guess by myself :) Thanks.
