Trying to import an html file into access 97.
File contains an html table with 4 colums of data.
When trying to import get message:

"The wizard is unable to access information in the file 'C:\My Documents\Change Mgmt Access Db\text.htm'. Please check the file exists and is in the correct format"

If I split the file into sections (i.e. take out some of the rows from the table) it works fine. If I then cut out the opposite section it still works fine.
According to the manual there is no limits in the size of an html table that can be uploaded.

Any ideas?????

Also keep in mind that Access has database size limitations to 1 GB after that you need SQL behind it.
