Have you checked the text file in notepad to see if it is actually saving as
a comma or some other delimiter? If it is some other delimiter, you may
find your setting in windows is wrong. It may also have consecutive
delimiters or some spurious other characters ('.;:\ /), etc

I receive data as an excel office xp 2002 file that I need to convert
into
a
.csv file format. When I "save as" a .csv file and attempt to import
into
a
SQL database, the import log indicates errors.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
