Does anyone know how to import an ASCII file into a subfile in 4D?
I know all about tab-delimiters.  
Do I have to do anything special to the file before I import it....for
example, Will all subfiles will have to be in a separate file from the
rest of the table?

Does 4d take care of importing automatically into the subfile or will I
have to write the special code to import data to the subfile.  I want
this to work at the runtime level cause my client wants to be able to do
this herself.

All help will and always is greatly appreciated!  

Sincerly,
DAVE
