%T Automating a Vendor File Load Process with Perl and Shell Scripting
%X Roy Zimmer, Programmer/Analyst, Western Michigan University.

This presentation will show from start to finish how to implement the automated process of retrieving a vendor file, preprocessing it, and loading it into Voyager. The implementation is primarily in Perl, with some support by shell scripting. A novice to intermediate audience should be able to take this implementation and adapt the details to their needs.
