------------Thanks for your reply, but I fail to understand how another program 
could help me.I am not a programmer, so linking 2 programs together for me is 
quite  difficult.I really cannot understand how to use data.exe to solve my 
issue.
If I "have" to use a script, then it would need to be something that runs using 
Win DOS batch file.If anyone has any pointer I'm happy to follow them.
Thanks.Michele
