Remarks

The ColumnTypes property allows you to define the data format for specific columns in the imported text file. This property gets access to the ColumnDataTypeCollection collection, which provides a mapping from a set of document columns to a set of column data formats. Use the ColumnDataTypeCollection.Item property to specify a data type for a particular column in the imported document. Note that the column data format settings are taken into account only if the TxtDocumentImporterOptions.ValueTypeDetectMode property is set to CsvValueTypeDetectMode.Advanced.
