Making the most, or over-thinking it - SQL for uploads

I had the awesome idea to use SQL in RDi to import data into a DB2 file from a text file on a network drive.

I'm mostly familiar with SQL but not so much in the RDi environment. (Getting there is all the fun.)

I can access my DB2 files on the IBM I and display data, but haven't figured out the set up to access text files on a PC (using SQL).

I need to be able to access only three areas of the text file, one for the WHERE clause, and the other two for the data to INSERT.

I'm relatively certain that it's in the Database Connections setup, but need a little help in figuring out the wizard.

Any ideas on an existing QAD primer? Especially one on the more recent versions of RDi (9.5.0.3)

And even more for the PC-disabled. I really need things spelled out for my simple mind.
