<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>I know it's unfair as there are people who are just
waking up and others have already warmed up quite a bit, but let's see who can

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>So, the issue is with ASCII files and the construction
of the field list. If you use a file that has comma-separated field names (for
example, exported from Excel) or field names with a pre-defined length, the
data wizard (i.e. the ASCII data source) does not get it right. It seems that
although the code tries to use the right approach, something is misconfigured somewhere
and field names are always separated with whitespace. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Attached are two extremely simple files to test the
problem. The first has comma-separated values and the other one has 14-character
wide columns. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Then the next, maybe not so easy problem with the
datawizard is that on the first page it restores the last filename in the
lineedit (useful, we have to keep it), and instantiates the corresponding
datasource immediately (painful, if you wanted to look at another file and that
one happens to be big). But one thing at a time…<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
