[IUG] Automatic patron loads

["Diane C Leeson" <D dot C dot Leeson at hull dot ac dot uk>]

Hello,

I would like to ask if anyone has managed to develop a method of
automating the upload of patron information to Millennium?

At present we have to manually upload files by using data exchange to
ftp a file into the system.  Our computing staff are interested to know
if it is possible to have a method where the system can automatically
pick up and load files.  I am not aware that this can be done in any
standard way, but wondered if anyone in the user community had come up
with a clever way to make this happen.

Thanks in advance for any response.

Diane
