[FX.php List] Replacing my FM robot

[Steve Winter]

Hi John,

What I'd suggest is writing a PHP script which reads the text file,  
then uses FX/API to insert/update the records directly in the database  
as required...

That script can be called on the server itself using cron/scheduled  
task, depending on your OS///

Would this work...??

Cheers
Steve
