Import HRM files to Access

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am trying to import heart rate monitor(hrm) files to Access 2007. Is that possible? File name is the date of the file and then the extension

example: 23102010.hrm

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Selby

If the monitor files are simple text files then yes it would be possible. If they are in a bespoke format peculiar to the particular form of monitor then these would need to be converted to text or some other format that Access can read first.

Simplest way to find out would be to try to open the file in Notepad. If you can see normal text then it's a text file; if you see a peculiar mix of odd non-text characters it is a binary file of some kind. Let us know what you find.
