Yuri,
I came across this message when looking on how to import data from a text file via ODBC. Your sample code works very well. Thank you. But I was wondering about something. In the text file from which I am importing, I set names of the fields as the top line. Then when I look at the structure of the cursor "TEMPCRS" all character fields are of type MEMO. Is this by design? I can deal with this since when I append into my table the value from MEMO goes into CHAR type field. But I was just wondering if I might be doing something wrong.
Thank you.
