schema.ini file
An ini file is just a text file, so the answer is most likely "yes": use the built-in file access functionality.
If you can expand on your question/requirements (what is a "Schema.ini" file?) you'll get more detailed answers. -- Tim Williams Palo Alto, CA "dothvader" wrote in message oups.com... Is there a way to automatically create a schema.ini file from a text database in Excel or Access? |

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? |
