The DESeq vignette (make sure you read the current version) gives an 
example of such a text file and shows how to read it in. Compare whether 
your text file has the same format and then follow the instructions.

If you still cannot get it to work, please post an excerpt from your 
text file, the precise commands you have tried, and the output of 
'sessionInfo()'.
