I was exporting/importing data from Access 2002 tables to txt files once
and schema.ini file was created automatically in the same directory with table.txt
Now I can not remember how it happened - I would like to have shema.ini.

Could you please remind me how to do it.

Thanks.
 
Hi, Arnold.

The Schema.ini file is not generated automatically. This must have been a
custom procedure created by your database developer to import/export data
from your database application.

You can find the information about and specifications for creating your own
Schema.ini file on the following Web page:

Hi Arnold,

AFAIK schema.ini is created if you choose "Microsoft Word Merge" format
but not otherwise.
 
If you use a create table query to create a text file,
you will normally get a schema.ini file to go with it:

"SELECT tblfx_audit.* INTO [Text;DATABASE=c:\].[mytext.txt]
FROM [tblfx_audit]"
