Default Change default import settings



Hi all,

I have to do a lot of imports from a text file which is exporterted from
another system. The import wizard always uses " for text qualifier. I
always forget to change it to {} (none).

Is there a way to alter the default vaules of the Import wizard?

thks,

Z.

I don't believe there is any way to change the defaults.

Maybe you could record a macro when you do it manually (and correctly <bg).
Then next time you want to import a similar file, you just rerun your macro.
