import field separator

[Walter Vaughan Jr]

And since you have control of the file since can read it,  at worse you could read in and make a copy and run it through some sort of stream editor (sed on *nix),
(windows powershell) ps>get-content somefile.txt | %{$_ -replace "||","|"}    
NOTE POWERSHELL NOT TESTED, just example

Subject: import field separator

Hello All

In the import ascii statement is there a way to set a double pipe (  ||  ) as the field separator?
I have tried f=||, f=(||), f="||".
FilePro just doesn't like two characters after f= 

Thanks 

Rich
