[AccessD] Automatic Update Function

Of course it was simple.  However if you look at SQL Server export for 
example, by default if you tell it to use quotes, it quotes EVERY FIELD.

So if you are getting data from the wild, look out.  If you are doing 
the export yourself, and then the import yourself, it is really fairly 
easy, you control both ends.

As I mentioned I like pipe delimited because (in MY data) pipes are 
unheard of, so using that as a delimiter is pretty safe.  My data is 
name / address from the wild, so tabs are encountered occasionally. I 
have never actually seen a pipe coming in from raw data, though of 
course it is a key on the keyboard and someone could accidentally hit it.
