vastika, you might wanna email krishna bro. I am sure he will check back here :D . He seems to know his stuff. Krishna bro, I am still not able to put isoft's attributes on table with gateway's attributes (apart from origfilename because that was doen through merging). I figured out how to sepearate time and date, but now need to figure how how to do the latest time and latest date of EACH record.

Can you help with the table combining problem though.
