I have created an ugly process of comparing a text file to the source table to see what is new, then spit changes to a csv, and then append that csv to the original 'master' csv. Really ugly. If there is a better way of doing this, please, please share. Thanks, Aaron Hi Aaron, I miss something... can you please explain us how the process should work or what is your need? Do you need to compare a text file with a source table (source of the text file?) and then insert new records (and updated ones?) into a .csv file? Bye, M. M. I created a 'master' csv dump of the table. Now, once a day I check the records in the master csv against the table. Any records in the table that are not in the csv, get copied to a temp csv. A copy of the temp csv is sent to me via mail. Then the records in the temp csv are copied to the master csv. I am just trying to find a better process to get a daily update. |
