Is there a way to automatically create a schema.ini file from a text
database in Excel or Access?

Perhaps it would be best if I restated my problem. I am trying to use
a coma delimited text database in a Frontpage asp web based structure.
To avoid the usual question of Why don't you use an mdb file with
Access?, I will tell you that the file is donwloaded to my serveer
automatically from anthoer server in this format. The problem is when
I try and use the Frontpage wizard to interface the txt datbase into
the asp web page I get an error message that says that I need a
schema.ini file. I understand the purpose of this file but I was
interested to know whether it can be created automatically by either
Excel or Access?
