Re: Populate dataset with text file

Thanks Bill, but this will want to send the lines line by line. Using this
method, it is taking about 30 minutes to record 147,000 records.
I am coming to Delphi from MS Access and visual basic and am trying to find
a way to "bulk send" the file into a table, such as MS Access's
DoCmd.TransferText, which takes about 10 seconds. I am CERTAIN that this
functionality would exist in Dephi.
