BBB in its own list.
Breakouts go into their own list breakout.lst
CCI goes into its own list

I am working on something similar. When I saw the fine print in WOW showing the
list 'does' have items tagged, it all made sense and will cut the manual tasks out for
me. I want to do something similar. I am going to write a program that will take new
scan results (*.lst) and merge them with my current *.txt files for WOW. Then I can
sort the list and check for duplicate entries, then read them into WOW in the
appropriate GROUP.

While I know there are programs in perl (Scripts) and Winbatch, it would be much
easier if I just wrote a program to do all this for me.

???? I am confused. You want to do what I am doing but you don't want to use Perl or Winbatch. What would you use TCL or Dos Batch???

Anyway here is snippet that I gave to some others which is very easy
to do part of what you desire....

This is dos batch with one extra program called uniq. If you want it
email me and I'll send it too you....

This will take two new lists, append to existing list and then
sort and remove duplicates.....

copy existingList.txt exustingList_09171997.txt
type newList1.txt newList2.txt existingList.txt | sort | uniq > newSortedList.txt
move newSortedList.txt existingList.txt

Very little programming here, just stringing together a couple of basics....... keep us posted on your progress. I am always interested in ideas that reduce the amount of work I have to do....
