                                            | Hi.We have a machine in our plant that runs the chemcial analysis for the sample taken every 15 min.  The software came with the machine was designed to store the data into a dat file.  Each column in the dat file was separate by a tab.  I try to find a way to automatically import the data from the dat file into the SQL server.  I know the solution is out there but don't know where to find it.  If you know a way please help me out.  I'm very appreciated for your help. ThanksAlan |  |
