Delimited Files. In computer programming, a delimited text file is a file in which the individual data values contain embedded delimiters, such as quotation marks, commas, and tabs. A delimiter is a character that separates words or phrases in a text string that defines the beginning or end of a contiguous string of character data.
Change the delimiter that is used in a text file. If you use the Text Import Wizard to import a text file, you can change the delimiter that is used for a delimited text file from a TAB character to another character in Step 2 of the Text Import Wizard.
