    Import Error Tables

    We import data from ASC files. At times the data contains " quotes in the
    descrition resulting in Import Errors. What I would like to do is create some
    sort of query that would show the data in question.

    The Import error gives me the line# referance. I would like to display this
    line back to the user doing the import.

    Does anyone have any examples of how I may be able to handle this issue?

    Thanks
    Matt

    Did you create an import specification so that Access treats the quotes
    as something other than a field delimiter?

      Quotes are treated as fld delimiters ",". So if the user puts additional
      quotes in the body of the data yet it doesn't contain the comma the import
      fails to import the rest of the data for that record..
