Someone help me... I need a way, other then using DTS to insert data into a
SQL table. I was able to find some code on easyCFM.com, and it works, but
only with comma delimited files. What I need to know is how I might be able
to correct this so I can use files with other delimiters.
Below is
It would appear that not all the lines of your input file have four
values.
Keep in mind current versions of CF ignore empty list elements.
Ex:
item1,item2,,item4
The above comma delimited list only has 3 items, even though it would
appear to have 4.
(Word is, CF8 fixed that)

Wait, I just noticed the fourth listgetat doesn't specify a delimiter--
which means it is defaulting to a comma.
That would cause problems when using a | or ~ delimiter. (or
technically, anything OTHER than a comma)
If you change the fourth line to '#listgetAt('#index#',4,'|')#' that
should
Dae,
I have questions:
cfloop index=index list=#txtfile# delimiters=#chr(10)##chr(13)#
cfquery name=importtxt datasource=sqlconnect
INSERT INTO testload (date_add,name,phone,zip)
VALUES
('#listgetAt('#index#',1, '|')#',

Thank you Charlie!! I didn't think it needed one because after the 4th
field, it's a CR/LR. Regardless, changing to:
'#listgetAt('#index#',4, '|')#',
WORKED!!!
THANK YOU!!!

Someone help!! How do I fix it to work with other delimiters? I get the
below error if I can the comma to say a pipeline '|'. I made sure to change
the test.txt file to match.
*15 :'#listgetAt('#index#',4)#'*
Also, you forgot the pipe delimiter on the last line
The performance of cffile action=read and cfloop list=file, delim=end of line
chars is terribly poor... Furthermore (as you have found out), there's usually
a lot of trial and error getting this to work.
Assuming you have a well-formatted delimited text file, the best approach is to
use
Also again, It isn't necessary to have all those pound signs in your
listgetat statements. The following will work:
cfquery name=importtxt datasource=sqlconnect
INSERT INTO testload (date_add,name,phone,zip)
VALUES
('#listgetAt('index',1, '|')#',
