I know Access extremely well - but not Perl or CGI.
I have been given a last minute project where I must make a series of reports based off data given to me from a .cgi page.The web developer gives me a text file (pipe character delimited) - problem is it is 474 fields and Access is limited to 255 fields. Is there a simple perl script that can strip a file at a given field?
I tried opeining the file as a sequential file in VB Script - but the pipes are not recognized as field deliminators.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
