File split

I need to read a file similar to the one below into an array and then create seperate files based on the computername entries in the file. I believe that I'd need to look for this string "----------------------------", but since there are two of those lines for each computer entry, I'm not sure how to split it out. Any advice would be appreciated.

Read the file into an array with the ReadFile() UDF and then just iterate through the array. From the example you give, the line before the first of two elements containing "----------------------------" ends with a "." and the line before the second element (but after the first, the one you want) ends with a ")".

Here is a little proof of concept to start you on your way. Code: break on $filearray = ReadFile('C:\KiXscripts\test.dat') For $element = 2 to UBound($filearray) if right($filearray[$element-2],1) = '.' if $filearray[$element-1] = '----------------------------' if right($filearray[$element],1) = ')' $filearray[$element-2] ? $filearray[$element-1] ? $filearray[$element] ? endif endif endif next Edited by Les (2004-12-21 09:10 PM) _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

Thanks for the example. _________________________ I could have made a neat retort but didn't, for I was flurried and didn't think of it till I was downstairs. -Mark Twain
