Can Sesame "import" from a Q&A "report"? (Read 542 times)

	I've had much success importing from a Q&A export ascii file using programming (Thanks for everyones help), I'm now wondering if Sesame will import (also using programming) a Report from Q&A? I dont know much about Q&A reports, but it seems like if we run a report WITHOUT headers and footers and the columns are tab seperated, it should not be a problem? Any thoughts? Thanks, Steve in Texas

	Unless you make use of the File I/O functions, Sesame will only import a file which is comma-separated and quote-delimited. Q&A reports do not fit this format. In additon, a report often creates extra blank lines which woould import as blank records.
