If at runtime your data are stored in Lingo lists, you could use my Xtra vList to save them in an external (binary) file. For that functionality you can use the Xtra for free. You have also an option to transparently compress the files using zip algorithms. -- Daniel Devolder Check my vList Xtra for saving Lingo values and lists with optional ZIP compression and encryption http://www.updatestage.com/xtras/vlist.html [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
