I have a user that is importing text files with extetions like FPA TDA XPL, and they keep getting an error. If I change the extension to TXT it works.... HELP!

What are you doing with the text files? If you want to parse into a table, you can read them as a binary file and do the parsing. What you do with them makes a great diff.
