Any ideas ?
I think the original source was a goldmine database, looking around it appears that the file was likely built using an application called ACT which I gather is a huge product I don't really want to be deploying for a one off file total size less than 5 meg.
So ...
Anyone know of a simple tool that I can run this file through to convert it to a standard CSV or something?
It does appear to be (when looking at it in notepad and excel) in some sort of csv type format but it's like the data is encrypted somehow.
Ok this is weird,
I got a little confused because the data looked a complete mess, in actual fact the mess was the data, that's what it was meant to look like.
Simply put, i opened the file in notepad, seemed to have a sort of pattern so i droppped it on excel.
Apparently excel has no issues reading these files ... strange huh !!!
