Do you HAVE to use VB to do this? Can you just use Access and do a File -> Get External Data -> Import? This would be much easier, IMO.

My .txt file contains roughly 365,876 records with two fields - Barcode, Price. This has to be imported into an Access table also containing two fields Barcode (text), Price (Number, Double, Fixed, 2 decimal places). The .txt file is comma delimited. I'm using Access XP and Visual Basic 6.0 as the front-end. Thanks in advance for any help as, this project needs to be ready for Monday morning......
