    Thank you very much Rohn007 for your prompt response.

    I have checked the links you sent above they are very good. The records criteria are met  (as they are > 50000 records). However, I could not find a file that matches the column criteria of around 30 columns.

    The dataset is needed to complete a research assignment.

    Thanks again for your help.

    Regards,

    AF-OD

    There is test data with these links, I don't know if it meets your criteria.  Why do you need test data that specific size?  Are you looking for a rough total data size? Can you substitute more rows for less columns?
