batch importing graphics

[sryan]

I am trying to import a folder containing .gif images. I have hundreds to import. I'm looking for a quick way to batch import these .gifs. I currently have FM 6.0. Can you import a whole folder at a time when inserting pictures or is this something that would need to be scripted?

Hi Sryan

Filemaker will import a whole folder. Goto to the file menu and click on import and you will see import file and import folder. Click on folder and follow directions.

I have a similar problem but with text files - I have comma delimited data being posted to a folder, each text file is a single record of 134 fields. I have tried the import folder function but the only information that comes up on the field matching window is the file name, file location and content type.
