Removing Multiple Headers From Imported File

[Guest]

I'm required to import a speciifc txt file into Access every day, when
importing this txt file into an access (table) it repeat the header
information multiple times through the document. The location/placement of
these various headers do change and are based on the number of transactions
and employees. Could some-one help me. I would like to remove/delete all
header information from document/table.

Thanks in advance. (See example of imported document below)

What information is header, and what is to be imported; and what is the
structure of the table into which you're importing it? I strongly suspect
you'll need to write some VBA code to do this, or to see if the generation of
the text file can be changed - it certainly looks like a Report generated from
a database of some sort, perhaps you can get a closer link to the database
itself.
