Jason, Thanks for the reply. Since those figures change _daily_ on their site, I was hoping for a way to open the file, read it, adjust the format by lopping off the last line into an array and writing those values into a table - _without manually copying and pasting the data each day into a .txt file_. I have been able to do that with other remote URL's dynamically which were designed as .txt files using a tab separator. The php script opens and reads the file every time it is changed on their server and formats the data. However, this file is a .doc file and I'm trying to find a way to achieve the same result. Best... TR
