I would like to be able to perform a find and then import or copy the found set into new records in the same table while modifying a couple of fields in the process.

I've tried exporting then importing but it's very slow.

Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Mel

All of this depends where you are exporting and importing to/from.

If you create a another table in the same file that is a straight copy of the target table then you can use the IMPORT function both ways...

1. Do the find

2. Switch to a layout that features the "copy" table

3. Import

4. Switch back layout

5. Import

You need to "clean" your "copy" table before starting, but the IMPORT function should be a lot faster as the data is never leaving the file.
