I think this is a good compromise. :-) However, since the program is already
set to recognize some things, would it be too difficult to modify it to
recognize the country and re-order things and ignore other things. Maybe
both changes?
Like Robert said however, I hate to discourage someone by trying to make
this too complicated. :-)
I do have a question, will it be possible to skip certain lines--the
province/state line, for instance? Maybe a blank line for those things that
are skipped? I envision myself creating a template with field titles (like
above) which I would duplicate, and copy the real info into. Overall, I like
the idea of what has been suggested. :-)
