Subject: Newbie Question - Creating Data Source for CSV text file
Date: Fri, 11 Aug 2000 10:28:04 -0400

CF Gurus,

I have a customer that is a car dealership.  They want to put their car
inventory online.
The company that makes their inventory database tells me that the data store
is not ODBC compliant, but that they could output a CSV text file that they
will auto-FTP to our servers in the middle of the night.  Not exactly the
most elegant solution, but it beats entering car data manually.  :)

Can I create an ODBC connection in the CF Administrator to use a CSV text
file as a data source?   I tried but I could not get it to verify the data
source.

Any Tips or place I could go to for more info?
