Import txt,csv to Access 2003

[Mmattson]

Win XP/Office 2003, all patches and updates I can find applied.

I am importing data as I do on many occasions. While importing, the step where one can change the field name, field type, etc. I have a problem. This happens invariably.

I can only modify the first field. If I try to modify any successive field, the changes aren't applies (the settings for the first field still display). I have tried to run blind and change the settings as if Access was really changing fields, but then I have really changed field 1, even if I have highlighted any other field.

What is going on here? I have had this problem since installing Access '03. I thought there would be a patch, so I was patient...

Am I getting no replies because I am not describing the problem properly? Because no one else has this problem? or because no one knows the answer?

Every file. Actually I found confirmation on MS's discussion boards. It is a bug. They haven't fixed it yet.
