Subj : Loading tab delimited file into a table To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : thomas.murdoch@vwc.state.va.us (Tommy) Date : Fri Mar 19 2004 12:15 pm I am new to Borland C++ and I have been trying to figure out a way to load a tab separated file into a temporary table. My application is suppose to take the data from the file, load it into the temp table, run a couple of functions on the data and then send it to a permanent table. Both the temp table and the permanent table reside in the same database. I was going to do everything through an SQL query using LOAD but I read that SQL 2000 does not support that anymore. I am not against the idea of having to parse out the text in the file and insert each field into the table that way, but I was hoping that someone out there would know of a better way. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, Tommy .
