Tab Delimited Files
Hi. It has been a while since I have worked on the DBman for the site I control - but time to wake up and get this thing working.

I had tried my last attempt with an Excel file converted to a tab delimited file. The first one came out ok, but the rest were all spilling into each other's fields.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Here is the link:

Thank you for the reply, I think I got it working. It turns out that the field, UserID, was throwing the entire database off. As soon as I took that out, everything work. I will try adding that field at the beginning perhaps. Not sure.

=)

How have you set up the $db_delim variable in your .cfg file? It should be

$db_delim = "\t";

You must use double quotes in order for it to work.
