[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5965975, member: 57383"] It looks pretty straight forward, but a bit tedious. Unfortunately, I don't think there's an easy way for me to translate the data to each field with the access I have, but that's not what I was talking about. The main body of the text - the description, tactics, power descriptions and so forth - is all one field. All the text formatting uses tags, so if I want an [I]italic[/I] word I'd need to type in italic. I'm just writing a macro which'll take a formatted document and put in the appropriate tags for [B]bold[/B], [B][I]bold italic[/I][/B], [SIZE=3]Large[/SIZE] and so forth, so I don't have to type them by hand or do a bunch of Find-And-Replace commands. Problem is, I don't know what tags the system allows. The bold, italic and so forth are easy to deduce, but I'd like to know what tags (if any) is uses for [FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]fonts[/FONT], [size=3]text size[/size] and [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-monster-talk/325506-where-here-planning-thread.html"]hyperlinks[/URL]. The Enworld forums use bog-standard tags for those: font="[I]fontname[/I]", SIZE=[I]size[/I], URL="[I]location[/I]"; but I don't know whether I can use them for CC database entries. I suppose I could just write a monster up and find out, but I'd like to hear from Freyar before adding new creatures to the Catalog. I haven't heard anything about the Forum Admin question, no.
