Yes its for the back of a Form in Access. I have tried various things to get
the loop to go through each record. The loop works but it does not append
the data to the the table. I drop the data into a .csv and then auto load it
into access adding the other columns necessary using a macro. So I can play
with the stuff as much as I like as the data in Access is only important to
me. The help files are quite good but I cannot find any decent examples for
what I want to do.

Harry.
