Hello all,

Ive got some very large text files that need splitting up ready to be CSV'd and imported into MySQL db. Files are 200mb a piece which on microsoft word comes out at around 30,000 pages minimum. I thought it would be easy to select a range of pages on word>>>edit>>>select>>>copy>>>paste but there appears to be no function for this...any ideas?

Doing an "edit>>>select" command and holding the cursor down to copy the text i would like would take me a calculated 130 years to do. Unfortunatley i will be dead by then.

Anyone have any ideas on how to do this in word or any other large file text editors?

Cheers
