data duplicates when i have scripted an import

Hi,

I am so new to databases and filemaker, it's scary.

Now, I am trying to import data, a price list that updates regularly. Each time I import, based on matching fields, and adding new ones, it duplicates the existing data? I can't see why, when it's based on a field that doesn't change.

I'd love some advice.

John, what is your match field? Do you have the update matching records option selected? Are you sure that you have the correct found set in the destination table?

Am I sure I have the correct found set? Do I look like an idiot ...... yes ..... that's the answer.

Thanks heaps.

Keep an eye out for my stupid questions. i'm gonna need some help. I've got the FMPro learning cds but i'm learning from this forum ALOT. Thanks everyone.
