Hi,
The PowerScript function ImportFile() supports tab-delimited ASCII files, dBASE 2 & 3 formats. The text files should consist of rows of data. If a file includes column headings or row labels, set the startrow and startcolumn arguments to skip them. The data types and order of the DataWindow object's columns must match the columns of data in the file.
However, if you want to be able to import any kind of file, you may have to - first - export to one of the above formats.
Regards,
