 edit: copying loads of data fron a text file to a table

[Edit]

When I open the TXT file from my server. the structure is as follows (dont
know if this might help)

(the * sign is actually a weird black sqaure in the textfile. This might
represent a line break, I m not sure)


Quote:

script.
> The mail addy's are copied into this txt file by he script.

> I want to transfer the newsletter stuff to my own VBScript mail
application.
