Hi Joy,

To retrieve results from a Scantron, you need first to define your template document with their software. Once this is done, you load the template into the Scantron and can start to retrieve the information from your sheets. The output is a comma delimited ASCII file that you can then import into your DBF.

I don't know any way of doing all these jobs automatically. They have a Web site, should be www.scantron.com
