I really meant the times where it is just typed in a single column like they did before computers.
Lastname, Firstname I.

If a customer calls and wants to come in, I ask them to first email the text.
If a customer is in the shop, I ask them to email the file when they get back to their computer
I tell them that it is more accurate, there is no room for typos
If a customer is in a rush, I have them email the text.
If we are too busy and they are in a big rush, I have them type it on the front computer.
It is very easy to convert all caps to caps and small in the Xenetech or in Word

And it was developed on v12.
Thanks for the excellent idea on which the macro is based! I'll tidy it up a bit and post it for the forum. It's definitely not a replacement for Print Merge, but I think it's a couple of steps closer. If nothing else, it's an improvement over manual methods.

Just got around to trying your import text macro--by necessity--I might add.
If you want to know how it worked--next time you're in St. Louie dinner's on me.
Thanks very much.

Now, just out of curiosity, would that dinner be McD's, TGI Friday's, or someplace that I'd have to buy new clothes to go to? ;^)
