Thanks, I'll pick this back up on Friday - can't wait to dig in. Goodnight and enjoy your Thanksgiving.

No but I am fluent in SQL and thought it would make constructing the export files easy, especially if the specs change in the future. In doing more reading it seems like getting the tab separated input files into a data grid would then make it easy to get into the db tables. But I'm very open to any...
