Hi, I'm an extreme novice at Notes development and would appreciate some guidence with what I am trying to achieve. I've done a lot of searching without finding what I need.

Say I have a view with 100 documents that has a title field that is the same in all of the documents.

I have a text file with 100 lines of different titles and I want to be able to take these 100 lines from the text file and update the title field in my documents. The end result would be the 100 documents in the view displaying the same titles as are in my text file.

An agent from one of the old forums is as close as I've found, but this sets all of the fields to be the same as what is entered in the dialogbox.

Thanks for any help or assistance on this and I hope this makes sense.
