Hi, yeah I had a play over last hour or so, the best way I figured out was to use SED and delete the whole line, then to just call the function which inputs new data and do it as such... would be nice if i could simply get it to delete the line then add data back into the same line..
And yes, strID is a unique identifier, there are checks to make sure no two are the same.
thanks for your reply !
