Yes. Just use the "Other" option for the delimiter, and type in the tilde character. And, although Gustav is correct about the double quotes, my data included 3-D model x-y-z coordinate locations denoted in feet & inches...thus my decision to go with the tilde. There is sometimes a method to my madness;) Mark -----Original Message----- From: John W.

IOW 27 Heath Way, #27 turns into two fields when imported (skewing the data) where I really want to pull the data into a single field. I can replace the comma with a tab but would like to solve this problem for the future.

Alternatively you can user /U <username> /P <password> for SQL Server security. /A is used for setting global variable values I use the NO_OUTPUT option when executing this from a SQL Server sp, because ADO mistakes the console output for an error message. Type dtsrun /? from the server's command window (or master..xpcmdshell 'dtsrun /?' from a query window) for help on all the switches, or look it up in books online. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Lonnie Johnson Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2004 11:19 AM To: 'MS-ACCESS-L at lists.missouri.edu'; AccessDevelopers; ms_access; AccessD solving' Subject: [AccessD] Pass Through to DTS package Does anyone know if you can send instructions via a pass though query to start a SQL Sever 2000 DTS package?
