Format: TYPE SDF | DELIMITED [WITH <delimiter>|BLANK]
If the desired FROM <file> is not a database, the TYPE clause
may be used to specify SDF or DELIMITED <file> formats. The
default extension for these formats is "TXT".
An SDF file is an ASCII text file in which the records have a
fixed length and end with a carriage return and line feed.
A DELIMITED file is an ASCII text file in which each record ends
with a carriage return and line feed. Fields are normally sepa-
rated by commas, and character fields are additionally delimited
by double quotation marks. However, the DELIMITED WITH BLANK
option may be used to indicate that fields are separated by
spaces rather than commas; and, the DELIMITED WITH <delimiter>
option may be used to indicate that character fields are de-
limited by a character other than a double quotation mark.
