I am trying to import data from a fixed length file using the following



CREATE TABLE EXT_TBL EXTERNAL TABLE 'C:\filename.txt' TABLE COLUMNS



I get the following error when I try to commit



Cannot commit transaction:

Unsuccessful execution caused by a system error that precludes

successful execution of subsequent statements.

Access to external file "C:\filename.txt" is denied by server
administrator.



Is there something I am missing or that I need to do differently?
