[AccessD] Recordset into Text File

Ryan
 
If the text file is fixed-width then a specification is required to tell
Access where to look for each column. If the file is delimited (comma is the
most common) then the import wizard should just prompt you for the
delimiter.
 
Does that help at all?!

Hi All,
 
I'm trying to import a text file into Access and am a bit stumped by what is
required for a 'Specification Name'.  
 
I've looked at the macro dropdown list for this and it was empty.  (?)
 
Can anyone tell me what is required?
 
TIA
RyanS
