:sign0161: I should have realised that changing the column type to cString within my initialisation sub would do nothing as the file had already been created by then.
Why didn't I think of deleting the original SMSInbox.XML file??
Thanks for the help, told you it would be something really simple :sign0013:
You suggest that CSV might be better, why is that?
My intention is to replace my phones messaging program with one of my own.
I intend to filter messages as they arrive so that certain ones are automatically stored in a log file along with my replies so that I can compile a kind of diary record.
I had a brief look at SQL but where to start?
The SQL example uses an existing database and just shows how to run a query, I'd need to create it from scratch.
Also, (last question
), the inbox table will store all messages as they arrive, I then thought of using the node control to list the messages and select the desired one.
Is this the best approach? What events do nodes have? I've checked the help file and only properties are listed, the SQL example which uses nodes does not seem to have any events linked to the nodes but is there a better example for using nodes?
Your help is, as always, greatly appreciated.
