OK, so you parse the file and create a dDataSet.

I don't know why you need a bizobj: you have no table and no business
logic.

Again, no need for business logic; the user supplies that.

So let me understand: you display a line of text, and the user marks
how to split it up, and probably also what to name each piece. You
then write that information to a text file. Is that correct?
I guess I'm still not understanding why you think that you need a
cursor or a bizobj.
