OK - so my mind is turning to mush. I have a wide file - about 730 characters wide - that I need to import. It will be in ASCII delimited format. I have divided it into two files of about 480 characters and 240 characters. What is the easiest way to get them into a VFP 5 table. I can APPEND FROM for the first one but then how do I get the rest of the fields from the second file into the proper records. I know which fields are where. Suggested approaches please.
TIA
