MS Word Pages to Records

Featured Replies

Hello, I have a MS Word file which I would like to import into FM Pro 5. I would like each page of text to be in a separate record. I have split the text up in MS Word with forced page breaks. Is this possible?

You can do it fairly easily if you know Visual Basic.

Visual basic will help you to export the contents into different cells of a Excel file - and then you can use filemaker to import data from the excel file.

Other than, I can't really think of another way for Word to FM. But don't take my word for it - because there can be ways that people have used.

If it just a few records ( 50-100) doing it manually wouldn't hurt that much I hope.
