It's a *very* old program.  It can't handle long file names, or file
names with spaces.  Try putting everything in c:\sm7, and make sure
the txt file has a short name (like 'list.txt').  Create a new
database, make sure it's open, then select import text.  I just did
this, and it does work.

It means "If I Recall Correctly".
