Greetings, I know what you're talking about - this occurs because the existing BDS file which stores the file type used does not match up with what you chose - it happens mostly with CSV files that you open with Excel and later switch back to Delimited or vice versa. You can't turn this off because it needs to be this way - File types and BDS files are important to the DataStation. It has to know what kind of file it's opening in order to parse it successfully.
So the DataStation is basically doing its job here. Regards, Thom Thom C.
