If you do not use an Import Specification in the TransferText action, ACCESS will assume that the delimiter is a comma. If there is no comma in the line of data in the text file, the entire line will be put into a single field.
You can create an Import Specification by beginning the import process manually (File | Get External Data . . . | Import). When you've set all the settings (delimiter, fields, etc.), on the last screen before you actually do the import, click the Advanced button at bottom left of window. Then save all the settings as a Specification (give it a name). You then can cancel the import.
Use that specification name in the Specification argument of the TransferText macro action. --
