Thanks, guys. I'm not too familiar with this but I'm willing to try it.

1. I opened in excel. It said the whole file couldn't load. Does that mean it's too big?

2. I see the columns with Michigan in it. Is there an easy way of isolating the rows that are not Michigan? EDIT: Nevermind... that filter thingy rocks

3. I've saved the file as a csv. That's comma delimited, correct?

4. Rename the file as nations.txt? Not cities.txt? I've seen you explain this before (to me actually) I just don't remember the reason. EDIT: I've just renamed it nations.txt and... wow! it opens in in notepad! That should do it, right?

Thanks again.
