Hi Denis,

There're two extra "%' characters, one at the begining and another at the end of each line which you've to take into account. The following code works for me (VFP8SP1).

CREATE CURSOR test (f0 C(1), f01 C(1), f02 C(3), f03 C(5), f99 C(1))
APPEND FROM test.txt DELIMITED WITH "" WITH CHARACTER %

* test.txt
%a%bbb%cccccc%
%a%bbb%cccccc%
%a%bbb%cccccc%

>I have been trying to do a basic "Append from myfile delimited with %" command with a txt file that has e.g. "%a%bbb%cccccc%dd%. Not having much success. The VFP 8 import wizard does it fine. Is % an OK delimiter? Have appended fine previously with tabs and commas withourt problem. Thanks, Denis
