I got some files that i must import automatically with a code, but they got no extension, they are special files that i manually import using the import data(text mode) then use some formula to extract information. I need them to be imported with a code, so i can continue the code to do everything automatically. Any suggestions???? please, im working on that for days!
 
have you tried adding a .txt or .csv extension to the filename? This may or maynot work depending on the actual formatting used by the application the files are exported from.
