I am downloading information from an ibm mainframe session.

Does anyone know how to read a flat file containing
s9(7)v99 numbers? I've tried microsoft text driver (float)9 for the field definition but it does not pick up the numbers correctly.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sorry for being ignorant, what are the s9(7)v99 numbers? The text driver is supposed to read text, so maybe CR formula is needed to convert the text into numbers?
