Wierd Characters in Import Wizard

R

I'm trying to import into Access 2000 a large fixed-width text file: 150+
fields, 1401 characters wide, and 79k+ records. During the import process,
instead of seeing the data, I see question marks and crosses. I made a
smaller sample of the file (76 records), and got the same result.

Any clues?

Nope.
Post a sample of the data (10 rows or so) that fails for your the same way.
Then I can see if it fails for me too.
