Well, I ended up going back to the client and asking for a different
format. 2 days of work for nothing. "Oh Sure, we can do that. Hang on
1 sec" and there it was, on my ftp, in a nice easy to import format.
So, Moral of the story-
avoiding trying to look dumb by doing everything the hard way and
failing in the long run can sometimes be avoided by just asking the
client for a better data export :D
Anyway, thanks for the help on this topic... I did learn a few things in
the process, even though it was unsuccessful. Learning is fun :)
