hey

of all the questions i have asked i don't understand the answers.
Because i'm from holland, my english is not very good en I don't understand examples from websites like MSDN etc.. so my question now is:

I have a textfile: *.vcf and i want to read this file Line by Line.
Then i want to split ":" because after the ":"..is the info i need to show.

example of the file is:

CSS

BEGIN:VCard
VERSION:2.1
N:'T GROENE HART
FN:
TEL;WORK;VOICE:0505420369
TEL;WORK;VOICE:0505420369
TEL;HOME;VOICE:06-12345678
TEL;CELL;VOICE:06-12345678
TEL;VOICE:0512 342040
TEL;WORK;FAX:0512 342040
TEL;FAX:0512 342040
ADR;WORK;PREF:;;Straat 34;HoutJE;;8765 AF
ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Straat 34
URL;HOME:www.biss.nu
URL;WORK:www.biss.nu
EMAIL;PREF;INTERNET:Jan@home.nl
END:VCARD

I don't need the BEGIN:VCARD, VERSION and the END:VCARD..so if it startswith VCARD then I want to read nextline tille N: and from this line convert the txt file to frmVCard.txtVCard "Text"..

can anyone give me an code example.. please no website..

thanks

Solution 1

The String[^] class contains all the methods you need to split information out of text such as the above.

Solution 2

Solution 1[^] provides you with enough to process the data, but you can open and read a file using

VB

FileOpen(1, FileName, Input)
Do Until EOF(1)
  Data = LineInput(1)
Loop
FileClose(1)
