Dave, There are ways of automating uploads but most aren't practical unless you are doing a lot of it. I've got the uploading of the catalogue files automated, but then again it's a monthly job (when I do it……right now JP is struggling with it.) There are several utilities on the TAPCIS forum that will help to automate the proceedure. There is even one that will write the entire script file for you as you type in the description file, keywords and title while running the program. I've just always found that it's just as fast (for a single upload) to just do it. Course then again, I will write the description file off line and upload that as an ASCII upload to the editor.

Joe, Gotcha chief! Thanks! Now that I'm no longer a virgin <g> I agree that uploading the description is enough. Be prepared for more Free and Shareware in the near future! Dave L.
