Can the ADO Text Driver Update Text Files?

[Larry Rebich]

Can the ADO text driver ({Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)}) update text
files?

I am successfully opening an ADO recordset containing text information. I'd
like to 'update' the recordset and have ADO write the text file.

Can this be done? If so does anyone have an example?

Cheers,
Larry Rebich

I don't believe that updates and deletes are supported by the ISAM/ODBC driver because ODBC requires
a unique key index which Text files do not have.
