I'm attempting to import a text file into a new table, but continue to run into "The search key was not found in any record" error. I don't want a search key.... just want a new table! The spec is set up so all the data types are text, and none are indexed.

The text file is a combination of data and header detail, and I can't figure out what I need to do differently.

Please Help!

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
It was the size of the database (2,095,108KB), couldn't import anymore. Re-imported into new database and compacted.... works again.

Thanks for sending me in the right direction, and welcoming me to Mr Excel!
