Hello
How can I make access import a tab delimited text file that contains a
special char u (but with the dots over it like a german spelling). The u
shows with the two dots in the text file but when it comes into access, it
looks like something else!!.
How can I make access import these special chars correctly?
Thanks 3 6464
What is the format of the file?
What is the version of Access?
Its hard to advise here without knowing what you are working with....

I assume you meant Access 2000? Since the question was about version of
Access.
If you hit the Advanced button on the Import Text wiz, you can pick the
encoding of the file, and if you choose correctly then it will properly
import any character in Unicode (which includes the umalut/diaresis, a char
which is nothing special when stacked up against everything in Unicode!).
If you have trouble, then more information -- you mentioned in your first
message that: >>The u shows with the two dots in the text file but when it >>comes into access, it looks like something else!!.
What does it look like, precisely?
