is it possible to access a list from another file and save whatever =
changes are made to the list after the original program has been run?  i =
made a simple book database which matches book titles with certain =
attributes each book contains.  i want to be able to create the main =
list of books and have my program access that list.  i also want any =
additions made to the list to be changed in that foreign list, so that =
next time the program is run, the list will include the new addition.  =
right now, though, i have it so that each time the program runs, it =
starts with a blank list.  any suggestions???  if anyone wants the code, =
i'll be happy to post that also.
thanks
paul brown
