I have a question about filemaker - I have 90 6-field records (each record
is no more than 10 characters long).  Is there any way at all I can convert
it to something like a master index? something that looks like this:

field1   field2   field3  field4  field5   field6
-------------------------------------------------
 yes      no       no      no       yes      yes    <--that's record #1
 no      yes(3)    yes     yes      yes      no     <--and #2
 yes      no       no      no       yes      no     <--#3, etc.

I tried importing it into macwrite but when I inserted the fields into the
document in the fashion above, it (sortof) did what I wanted but each record
was on a different page!

Any ideas?
