visual basic, reading strings from a data file

reading strings from a data file

Author	Message
Kevin Cifuente #1 / 4	reading strings from a data file I know that in Visual Basic, whenever you save strings to a data file, the string is saved with the quotations on each side. Is there a way to save strings and/or read them without including the quotation marks.

You would then read in the entire line of text, and parse it using MID$. For VB Windows, you could also use the JET engine to read/write text files. You would need to create a SCHEMA.INI file to describe the file. Let me know if this helps, or if you would like more detail. Joe

If it would still suit your needs, you could try using the ordinary Basic file access method: OPEN (see your help file). -- Cellphone: 0038631752815 Don't feel bad about asking/telling me anything, I will always gladly reply.
