    I have created programs in the past that sequentially reads data from .txt files with no problem.

    Is it possible to read data in the same way from files other than .txt files, such as .doc files. The data is also stored in tables in the .doc files?

    Am I trying the impossible or can someone shed some light on this for me please?

    How are you opening your txt files? If you're using Input, you may have problems opening filetypes that are not text-based. Instead you should open in Binary.
