I have some text files of data in a comma delimited format that I would like to import into Access 2000, where the data is to be
imported in text format only - no numerical or date values format.
I am looking for a VBA method/code to accomplish this goal.
The import delimited text file format:
Title1;Title2;Title3;data1row1;data2row1;data3row1;data1row2;data2row2;data3row2
Is there a means to inform Access thru VBA that the delimiter is a semicolon, and is there a means to advise that all data is to be
imported as text values only? Not all of the files contain the same number of columns of data so I don't think a template can work.
The plan is to get the text files imported to tables without user intervention beyond clicking a button on a form.
I could do this the long way using my own code, but before I try that I was hoping there was a short way.
Thanks,
matt
