As Tom is happy with the yyyymmdd date format in the output file all it needs is possibly a slight change to invoke a different delimiter and a simple wrapper to accept a .dbf name so that it can create a rowset to pass to usvout.prg. If the daily .dbf is named using a recognisable pattern it will be easy enough to check if a similar output file has been produced and, if not, to create it. Mervyn.
