Why not ask if dennis might be able to make it possible to us, so that we can create a are own hard disk web site with a front page or gernerik web page we can create. so when we go hunting for member instead of going to the list of values it would go to this web site that we created on our hard disk drive, and as the data is update so would are data, just a thought.

Hi Bill,

Importing text files such as member lists with callsign and member
number would be a great feature but I think the text file itself would
still need to be in a set format that Dennis specifies: something
along the lines of callsign, member #, or vice versa.

Example:

ab4rl,1
w2fca,2
w5wvo,3

or

1,ab4rl
2,w2fca
3,w5wvo

or

1 ab4rl
2 w2fca
3 w5wvo

[...etc...]

It would still be up to us, to get the text file in proper format
before it would be "import-able" from tools->setup->list of valid
values.

But perhaps LOGic might one day be smart enough to parse a text
file???
