'TEXT' would only be used with the type keyword: answer file "Choose your data file..." of type "TEXT" Filters are used as string matches like this: answer file "Choose your data file..." with filter "*.txt" Also, for cross-platform compatibility you may want to use three periods rather than the ellipss character at the end of your prompt. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation Developer of WebMerge 2.1: Publish any database on any site ___________________________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FourthWorld.com Tel: 323-225-3717 AIM: FourthWorldInc _______________________________________________ metacard mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/metacard
