>I had to import a text file which has pipes as the delimiter. When I use APPEND FROM DELIMITED WITH | I get a bunch of records with blank fields. I went into Modi file and replaced all the pipes with commas. Then I reissued the append command as "Append from type delimited", and the data came over into the table with no problem. Does anyone have any idea why this might have happened?

Agree with other replies. If you need something that is very rarely used, try the tilde (~). I do and it works great.
