Skipping headers when Importing a text file.

[bullwinkle55423]

I have a file that I want to import into an Access database, but I would like to start the import at the third line as the first two lines are header information and other garbage.

The file format is fixed width aned outside of the first two lines, I want to import everything.

Is there an option to tell the import specification to skip the first two lines?



Thanks.

if there isn't an option to do it in the wizard, an alternative would be to import through code and to follow up with a few extra lines that delete the top two rows out via the recordset object or via a DELETE query/action command (may need to combine the qry with a function if row identification is difficult through actual values)
