Better to create that list only one time and save it with a Xtra like vList, which is free for saving/reading in external files. The time for reading that kind of list back in memory should be a few seconds. -- 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]).
