import info from an Excel file

Hi everyone,

I would like to import info from an Excel file (may or maynot be in the PC which has FM 10). Is that possible? The idea is to have information imported directly from an iPad by which we will have all the data inputted on the road..

Let me know. Thank you!

Your message is confusing. Where does the iPad fit in? FileMaker Go on the iPad does not do import/export, among other things. Where is the Excel file coming from?

Sorry about the confusion.

Ok, so we want to collect data in an Excel (or the iPad equivalent) file in an iPad, and we need to see if that data is importable to the FM Pro 10 in a PC..

Is it clear now? Thank you!

sounds like a job for GO.

As long as you have rows for records and columns for fields, I don't see why not.
