Excel Table for searching (finding)?

Hello folks. I'm baffled. Is there any logical way to use a column of data in an .XLS file as criteria for "finding"? If so, what's the execution to make this happen?

Wouldn't the ability to import data into a find request and FM automatically create additional find requests for each row be an excellent feature, or am I on drugs? : heheh

Thanks in advance.

You can import into a temp table and script the creation of a find.

...any scripting examples for this? Not sure how I'd handle the processing of each row other than a loop (I'm not advanced).

Thanks!
