Text file import/export

When I attempt to import/link a text file, I select the type of file as
TextFiles, select the text file, and hit the Import or Link button. No
specification file is presented and nothing gets linked or imported.

Any idea what I did to hose the ability to import text files?

Salad,

If you do a google search on "missing import wizard" you will see you
are not the only one experiencing this problem. One solution I read
was reinstall Access. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I removed A2K. If I reinstall it I suppose I'll get the
Invalid License problem with A97. If it's not one thing it's another.

Access 2K, SP3 on Windows 2K, SP4 All, I have an import spec set up with quoted Identifiers and comma-separated values. The text file is produced by a 3rd-party program of which I have no control.

I have 2 problems: 1. I want to import a single text file into an access table using a Macro. I am however getting an error that I need to put a specification name argument. What does this mean? It also suggests that I add a schema.ini in the source folder. What does this .ini do and how do I create and use it? 2. After this is resolved, I would like to be able to import several text files using a macro into the same table.
