using data from ascii file?
 
I know how to get my formulas to pull data from another workbook... but what
if I want it to pull from an ascii, comma-delimited file? Then I am not sure
if it can recognize columns/rows? Suggestions? Thanks-

Bring the .csv file into excel and save it as a .xls file. Then use that in
your formula.

IMPORT DATA. Thanks though!
