Hello Group, I need  either transfer txt file to a table either
everything(first 2 columns in a text format)
or if possible to to transfer first 2 columns in a text format, skip
columns 3-8, and then column 9 and everything else. (There is no fixed
number of fields(columns) in the text file  it varies from 9 to 20)
I tried with a macro (but i can't do specifications since i dom't know how
columns there'll be) but it for some reason wants to transfer first second
column as number (when its clearly text) thus loosing a lot of data. I got
this so far, not sure what's next ---

Private Sub Command4_Click()
    On Error Resume Next

Dim fs As New Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim ts As Scripting.TextStream
Dim gOut As Outlook.Application
Dim mOut As Outlook.MailItem
Dim strLine As String
Dim aRecord

If fs.FileExists("C:\Hrsqd.txt") Then
    MsgBox "Exists"
        Set ts = fs.OpenTextFile("C:\Hrsqd.txt", ForReading)
        Do Until ts.AtEndOfStream
            strLine = ts.ReadLine
            aRecord = Split(strLine, ",")
        Loop
Else
    MsgBox "Doesn't Exist"

    End If
End Sub
