Javier:

As to the question of generating and using an .RGW specification file at the command line, the process is to create the RGW file using the File Gateway feature from the interface (update: as Razzak just indicated); then, within the GATEWAY IMPORT command at the command line, refer to said .RGW file with the OPTION SPECIFICATION_FILE_NAME

Example:

GATEWAY IMPORT ...
OPTION SPECIFICATION_FILE_NAME humpty.rgw

As for the rest ...

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Importing Data

I need to import 170,000 rows of data from either a CSV or an Excel file and I would like to create a specification file (*.RGW) with all the parameters so I can run t from command line. I remember having the option to create the import using the Gateway Utility and then storing the parameters in a RGW type file but I do not seem to find where the option is or how to do it.

When importing using the Excel import it gives me the option of using row 1 to read the column names; I do not seem to get this option when using CSV; is this not available?

Also, when changing the columns names on the import file to match current columns, it tells me the columns already exist even when the type and length are identical so I have to change the name to something else.

Obviously I have not used this feature in a while and my skills are rusty and the newer version are probably different than the last one when I use Gateway. Any light you can shed would be appreciated.
