Dim strFilePath As String, strFilename As String, strFullPath As String
Dim lngCounter As Long
Dim oConn As Object, oRS As Object, oFSObj As Object

'Get a text file name
strFullPath = Application.GetOpenFilename("Text Files (*.txt),*.txt", , "Please select text file...")

If strFullPath = "False" Then Exit Sub 'User pressed Cancel on the open file dialog

'This gives us a full path name e.g. C:\temp\folder\file.txt
'We need to split this into path and file name
