Dear All,

I have searched a lot at GOOGLE, but i can't found the way to import data from a form textarea into database.

Actually my web page would like to allow the user to export their phone book from excel file or outlook phone book, then import into my database.

I was thinking to provide a textarea for the user to COPY and PASTE their address book from the text file and then my web page will read line by line to store the data into the database.

Example data:

abc, abc@hotmail.com, 999999999

bcd, bcd@hotmail.com, 888888888

i can't find any solution that can read line by line, because normally when the we parse the data from the form textarea. All the text will become string that without the <br>.

Please HELP !!

Thanks.

use split(string, chr(13)) i think its chr(13) or just use multiple text boxes, however i thought there was a property that can be set to include the br

couldnt you just put replace(request("yourtext"),vbcrlf,"<BR>") likewise you could do the same when outputting the information to the page.
