I have a text file file ready to go into a Filemaker database. It has over 5000 rows, each containing over 500 columns.
If I do a straight import I can only pull in the first 442 colums, but all records. I can't take it in via Excel for the same reason - column limit stops at 'IV' - never got that far before. Is there a way to remove columns from the file using php on a fgets() basis? I can identify which columns I can do without quite easily - certainly enough to pare the file down to a reasonable extent. An alternative would be to create a MySQL Table and drop columns there. Advice on best route would be welcome.
