Import routine

[skc]

Hi,

I want to create an import routine to import .txt files
into an Access20000 table and making sure fields go into
the right places.

Here is a sample extract:

I want to throw away lines beginning with a "-". Also,
lines begininng with Feb 13 should be created in a new
column and copied down as the dates change as the file
goes on. The .txt contains thousands of lines.

Please help me or give me pointers.

Thanks,

Skc
