texte = I would like to write a merge WebDNA that searches thru a temporary (updated) database and does a [replace] on the main database. I had posted this in the past and someone from Technical support had suggested creating a separate db with just the sku number and price fields. This would be an easy solution, however I would like to keep the database together for other reasons (instead of pulling info from two different db's). Does anyone have a code already developed which is similar to what I am looking for?>Basically, I would like to be able to export everything from our >off-line database, create a temporary online database with the >exported info, be able to compare the part numbers in the temporary >database with the part numbers in the Catalog.db and when it finds >matching part numbers, replace the price field in the Catalog.db with >the price in the temporary database.Thanks for your help.
