Sweet! Thanks Matt

Phil, I was jsut trying to let you know what I had and I thought that letting you know that I had a databade that was exported from Access to tab formated text. I jsut got a PySQL/PHP book by Jay Green and Brad Burgler. So I think I might be bable to bang this out in the next day or so.

Yes.. but what is your actual question?

did you want to know how to insert the data in tab deliminated format into a MySQL table, "rotate" through mysql records, or.. ?

feel free to ICQ me if you want. 25285313

try using the perl functions shift unshift push and pop for real @arrays load the file in an array then just use those function to do what you want.

Actually, I would use phpMyAdmin to get your data into your MySQL database. It has an easy to use import feature. Don't even bother with text files unless you want serious server load and super slow performance and the risk of a corrupted text file screwing up your whole system. Once you get the data into your DB, there are about a million ways to rotate the data.

Hey! Thanks!!! I've been allover the place today and I found quite a few MySQL sites and I bought a MySQL and php book. They mentioned phpMyAdmin; I just down loaded it and will have to start on it in the morning, Also I found out I might want to restructure my data base I like the way your can link different data bases together. I think this might take me a few days. I knew you guys would come through you would be amazed at how dead some other boards are.. sheesh
