| Hmm, I have access to a Win machine, but I need to figure out how to
| this on Linux.
|
| External tables solution sounded like a good idea. But every time I try
| to create my table using the:
|
| Create Table Orders External '/tmp/orders.tbl' (.....);
|
| It throws an error saying that "Access to external file /tmp/orders.tbl
| is denied by server administrator". I checked the read/write permissions
| on this file to allow reads, but still have the same problem.
| Ideas?
|
| Thanks.

| uh, yeah... that would be a problem ;-)
|
| Do you have any Windows machines on the network that you could transfer
| the data from? I always do all my 'data' work on the Windows and then
| copy the ready file to the Linux server.
