Hi guys,
just wondering if Appeon one day would/could create an enhancement for the dw/ds Importstring function. Files at the moment have to be tab or comma delimited to be able to be imported...
A nice enhancement would be to be able to use importstring with a fixed length file, where each column/ record has the same length.
Then we could create an external datawindow and based on the length of the external dw columns , the import can be done with a single line of code...
P.S. We are currently reading line per line , but i would love to see above solution provided by Appeon.
If this is not the right place to post , please do let me know where else i can ask this question please :)
