Parameters

cSourceFile (Optional)

Type: Usual
The name of the delimited text file from which to add records, including an optional drive, directory, and extension.
See SetDefault() and SetPath() for file searching and creation rules.
The default extension is .TXT.
This function attempts to open cSourceFile in shared mode.
If the file does not exist, a runtime error is raised.
If the file is successfully opened, the operation proceeds.
If access is denied because, for example, another process has exclusive use of the file, NetErr() is set to TRUE.

cDelim (Optional)

Type: Usual
The delimiter used to separate fields in cSourceFile.
The default delimiter is a double quote mark.

acFields (Optional)

Type: Usual
A list of fields to copy from cSourceFile.
The default is all fields.

cbForCondition (Optional)

Type: Usual
A code block that defines a condition that each record within the scope must meet in order to be processed.

cbWhileCondition (Optional)

Type: Usual
A code block that defines another condition that each record must meet in order to be processed. As soon as a record is encountered that causes the condition to fail, the operation terminates.
If no scope is specified, cbWhileCondition changes the default scope to lRest.
You define the scope using one of these three, mutually exclusive arguments.
The default is all records.

nNext (Optional)

Type: Usual
The number of records to process, starting at nRecord. Specify 0 to ignore this argument.

nRecord (Optional)

Type: Usual
A single record number to process. Specify 0 to ignore this argument.

lRest (Optional)

Type: Usual
TRUE processes only records from nStart to the end of the file. FALSE processes all records.
