I'm importing a .txt file into Access 2010. I've imported fewer fields (columns of info) from this same file successfully using the same approach (fixed width format). I'm now attempting to go ahead name all of the fields in this file properly since i use it repeatedly (except with updated data). I've read some other posts suggesting to verify the column headings do not have any blank spaces. I've tried that..didn't find any. I've also deleted all of the data, except for 2 records, from the data file to eliminate the possibility of corrupt data....didn't help either. Tried with and without primary key too. Any other suggestions.
