Thank you Michael for your prompt email. I will send all the things you requested when I get back to work on Monday and have access to the workstation. To answer your question, I was hoping to import the entire file in one transaction. The file is large and I know that is why they brought me in for the project. They were unable to import the data into any usable format. I received the data in one large file and I was reluctant to break it up if I could avoid it. I guess I could cut it into multiple smaller files and import them separately into the table. Thanks again.

Mark
