Default "Bad file or number"

From:

I suspect somehow this file was not properly terminated (eg ctl-z).
it is 5.5 GB and I'm trying to load it into Access. It responds too
quickly
to have tried to read the file and found out it was too big.

I am thinking someway to copy binary and add a ^Z file?

It's been 2 decades since i did something like this and I suspect
whatever worked then won't work with 5.5 GB


32bit MS Access or 64bit MS Access ?
