Did you specify the delimiter correctly?

As spotted by baliji, if it a variable length file, it should be delimited. Where as fixed width doesnt require any.
In PX, warning will appear if you specify the delimiter with short length. So check whether you have specifed the right delimiter and length for each column.

Kumar,

This is not related to the topic.

Your posts count in this page and the one in the home page's Top 10 poster's list differs. Which one of them is correct?

Aha... When we delete the a post created by us, it really doesnt reflect in home page. The count remain the same. But gets reflected in this page. :wink:
At times i ll find, a post with an answere from some one else, before mine in just a mater of seconds or minutes. So I use to delete those post, but not now a days. :wink:
