Hi, This may seem like a dumb question but how do I import a simple table of records? - I foolishly tried ExcelPlug - not realising that that wold make two very nice html pages (Duh!) My example consists of four columns; 'Title' , 'Source' , 'Date Journal Info' , 'Subject' I have it as a (pair) of Excel tables (just because I have 90k records and Excel maxes out at 64k rows) Any Ideas?
