Hello

i was a doing an exercise where i can import csv with dw_1.ImportFile(csv!,path)

But my question is, Its possible to import a txt file with metadata, separate by a ' , ' or  '~' or ' - ' or any other character to a dw?  i have only used this imports with csv...

Hi Samuel;

   Basically for this, you would need to either:

1) use a FileRead() and then parse the data stream via PowerScript to get the related data out.

2) Create a utility to transform the TXT file into the required CSV format for the ImportFile() command to use.

Regards ... Chris
