[QUOTE="MacGrunt, post: 1393032, member: 210105"] I would have expected a csv to render the first line as "10000,AMBASSADOR 2" not "10000 AMBASSADOR 2". If there's only one space between the two elements we'll have to tackle it slightly differently. Upload your txt file Jeff. Hopefully I'll get a chance to look at it again tonight. To your other question — yes, files with no match get ignored. That's what we're doing here : [CODE]repeat with x from 1 to count items in mgOriginalNames if mgOldName = item x of mgOriginalNames then ... [/CODE] That is, if mgOldName matches nothing in mgOriginalNames then do nothing and move on [B]m.[/B] [/QUOTE]
