The problem with Cindy putting the heading and closing tags is that those already exist on the bookshare site that Pavi is putting the list on and them being in Cindy's file would break the code. Otherwise, yes, it is very simple.

Well, no. Jamie oversimplifies a bit.Firstly, the file needs to have the extension of .html. There is also some computerese that needs to go at the top and bottom of the file. Here's how your file would look:<html> <head> </head> <body> Date <p> Books being scanned <br> Name of book 1 - author <br> Name of book 2 - author <br> </body> </html>But, it really is very simple.

I'll try in a day or two. Then I'd attach the txt file because it would really be an html file? What would that be like pasted onto the message part of my post?

It's pretty simple html. A <P> is a paragraph return (two lines) and a <br> is like a single line break (one line). You'd do it like this: Date <p> Books being scanned <br> Name of book 1 - author <br> Name of book 2 - author <br> And then you just save it as a text file. I doubt we need anything fancier than that.-- Jamie in MichiganCurrently Reading: The Curse of the Holy Pail by Sue Ann Jaffarian See everything I've read this year at: www.michrxtech.com/books.html <http://www.michrxtech.com/books.html>
