Importing text file labels as .###

[fed]

I am using OSX on a mac. I generate a file named something like 'filename.123' outside filemaker. This gets imported into filemaker for further processing. My solution currently imports 'filename.123' just fine.

I recently changed the way these files are generated outside filemaker. They are still saved as 'filename.123', but are somehow not identified as text files by OSX or filemaker. I can no longer import them.

Do you have any ideas how I can import them?

Thank you in advance,

Fed

These are odd filename extensions. What is your data source? You can't simply make up your own extensions.
