Importing into Access'97

Canaboid · 2000-02-16 10:12:00

Want to import an 8mb excel csv file into access and it won't. Anyone know is this possible or what file size limitations there are etc. Only way to do it at the moment is to open it in word pad, slice it up into smaller chunks and import them one at a time.

Try saving it in tab delimited format in Excel then try importing it into access

take one blunt butter knife
stab yourself repeatedly until bleeding to death
think on way to hospital how much simpler life was before self inflicted injuries

and hey presto.. your excel to access problems are forgotten

try not to make the stabbing fatal..at least it will give you a second chance
