Importing data from an Excel Sheet to Powerhouse

Hi

You could convert the file to fixed length, define it in the 
dictionary, then use qtp to read each record and convert each field 
to fixed length outputing to a subfile.

Another option is to use bcp to load the data into an rdbms. On the 
fly you could create a table, load the data, extract to a subfile if 
necessary when finished you can drop the table. If the table exists 
then something went wrong with the previous load.
