Hi all,

I am trying to import data from various text files. The following
statement to create the external table does not work

CREATE TABLE Ext_Mse0p EXTERNAL 'E:\Projekte\SMP\Import\msep0' (
selaus char(16),
NEWLINE char(2));

The text file has no extension.

The result is:
ISC ERROR CODE:335544344

ISC ERROR MESSAGE:
I/O error for file "E:\PROJEKTE\SMP\IMPORT\MSEP0"
Error while trying to open file

I copied the text file to other locations.. but it didn't help.
I am working on Windows XP Professional with Firebird 1.5 RC3
installed localy.

Can anybody give me some advice what to try next?

regards
Hans
