Access 2002 Import Wizard for text files doesn't work. Any FIX?

[Guest]

Selecting fields and giving field name and type fails. It defaults to the
first one. Sometimes other corruptions occur. How can I 'regenerate' the
Import Wizard (and Export Wizard) to make it work as it should (Windows XP
5.1).

Hi Keith,

Installing the latest Office XP service pack should fix this.

John,

Correct me if I am wrong, but if Keith is having this problem, which is a
known problem on Access with SP3 installed, then he already has the latest
service pack installed.
