- I use a mail program called BusinessTalk 2000 and use it to communicate with
- folks at work. Since I get a lot of mail that needs to be stored for long
- periods of time, and this mail is in the form of text files on my Mac, I am
- developing a database that can read these files and help me link them to
- keywords and a customer table. I am doing this in 4D.
-
- Does anyone know of off-the-shelf packages that can catalog text files in this
- fashion? I am fairly new to 4D and am having a hard time getting it to do what
- I want without too much programming.
-
- Thanks
