import csv file
Hello,
I have csv text files which could contain between 1000 and 50000 data points. I cannot import this file directly to excel because of 256 column limit. What I want is to transpose the data into a single column. What is the best way to import this type of file?? (If its any help, I could mail a typical example). Regards, Bharesh |

import csv file
Hi,
Sorry, I did not clarify. In the text file, the data is on ONE single line. So if I imported into Excel as is, ALL the data would be in one row only. Can I send you a file??? Regards, Bharesh |

You mean that you may have up to 50000 columns of data ? How many records ? NickHK "m4nd4li4" wrote in message om...

import csv file
The .csv extension on the file will be interpreted by Excel and it will try
to import the file into a worksheet. I would change the file extension and then parse the text data under a program control. How do you determine the end of each row? -- Cheers Nigel "m4nd4li4" wrote in message oups.com... Hi, Sorry, I did not clarify. In the text file, the data is on ONE single line.

import csv file
There does not appear to be anything that would determine end of each
row. Would it be better if I email a file??? Regards, Bharesh |
