Hi. I have 2 data entry applications (Form 1 and Form 2) that I want to interconnect to each other. What is the best way to link the 2 applications using the .txt output file of Form 1. Thank you.

To clarify, you want to merge/join the applications themselves, or you want to take the output from the one application and use it somehow as input (i.e., a lookup file) for the second application?
Thanks,
Sherrell

I think I found the answer. I generated a PFF file from Form 1 then call Form 2 using execpff.
I'm new to CSPRO and I like how the community is so responsive.
Thank you heaps.

Glad you sorted it out. CSPro offers a lot of functionality, so it will take a while to figure everything out.
For the record, I work at the U.S. Census Bureau with the group doing the software development, so I'm sorta paid to answer questions
