Yes, Amy it really DOES SNOW in Indiana -- sometimes lots and lots of it. So are you going to digitize that picture of you in your snowsuit and let Betty Sellers put it up for all to see??? You didn't mention what type of database you are using, but you can usually split it with the database itself (like I use Excel and can convert it by just copying the lines and then pasting in another sheet -- split a-f for one file, g-k for another file, l-o for another file, p-r for another file and s-z for the last file -- then you just save like you did before and put the header stuff and trailer stuff on each of those pages and point your link info to the name you saved it under -- like maybe marra2f.htm, marrg2k.htm etc. If your database isn't like excel or access then you can chop up a file using a text editor program that handles large files --- I prefer List.Com which is a shareware program (one I liked and used longer than 3mos so I registered it) and you can get this at www.shareware.com -- think it is called list93a or something like that now. If you use list all you do is save first your database program as a text or ascii (space or tab delimited--NEVER richtext) file. then you use list like this: list xxx.txt (where xxx.txt is name of file) alt-m (this marks your first line to be saved) scroll down to last line to be saved in a file (for my case it would be the last entry for the f's) and have this last line on the last line of the monitor and do alt-b (tells it the last line on your monitor is last line to mark) (alt-b is the alt key plus the b key) alt-d (says you want to save this data (marked stuff) to a new file xxxx2.txt give it a new name here and it will save it as that. now scroll down so your first line of the next stuff is at the top line of monitor (in my case the first line of the g's) and do the above again for this section (alt-m, alt-b, alt-d, etc) when you finish the last of the database's text/ascii file you can then just delete it since you now have it in sections. Now just plug the beginning html and trailer html to each of these files and you are set to go. (I have a little trick here -- I will name my header html stuff as a.1 and a.3 then name my text file as a.2 and sort these so they are in order then I copy these a.? c:\marra.htm (it works and puts the html stuff in for me in proper places (but it MUST be in proper order for it to work) then I rename a.1 and a.3 to g.1 and g.3 and save my next group as g.2, etc.) Confused? Sorry. But maybe something I said here will help you chop this file up. Judy M. >Jay here. Activity on the site is increasing quite a bit, as are the number >of subscribers to the county list.
