: It would be most helpful in managing our student data if Blumen had the capacity to read or import data from a MS EXCEL file or an MS ACCESS file or both. I have found the ability to print Blumen Reports in MS EXCEL format a wonderful enhancement. Our I.T. staff is willing to give us data off our Datatel "Colleague" system in MS EXCEL format, but they can't help us upload the needed data into Blumen, so we have to do that manually. Reading the data off a MS program would be a tremendous time saver.

Blumen has the capability of importing or reading data from MS Excel or MS Access. This feature is called "SCRIPT". SCRIPT helps you to import data from MS Excel or Access or any other data format into Blumen. Script has to be custom-built due to the complexity of the data structure.
