Hi Fernand,

Needs some information about how the columns from a text-database are defined when linking to a csv file

until OO 1. the text-importfilter whas looking at row 2 and gives evry column a format coresponding to the caharacters where been found in the csv file

                   "aaaa"  becames  text
                   "0.00"    becames decimale with 2 digits after the comma.
                   "00/00/0000"  becames a date  etc..

with 002.0  this behaviour is changed and all colums endup as "text"

is this a bug our is their a other way to define  a format for a column ?

There was no (intentional) change in this area which I know of, so it
sounds like a bug. Mind submitting an issue with a sample CSV attached?
Frank,
Thanks for this quick respons, but : late yesterday evening I found out that this import mechanism is indeed still in place but only for CVS files and not for TXT or User named- extentions I wronly supposed that this 3 file-choises had the same import behavior, thats not the case only for CVS-files the filter is looking at row nr2 for the format. of the columns
BTW Where can i find the methodic behind this behavior ?

Fernand
