Jim and Tracy,

After looking at the text files, I realize that the data is COMMA delimited, not TAB delimited. Sorry for the mis-information. Everything (header row, and data) is comma delimited. I can open it into an Excel spreadsheet using the comma delimiter option with no problem.

Is this this info you were looking for?

Joe
