Reading from Files

I would like to know how to read a specific piece of data off of a CSV file. I know how to read the entire file, and also write it to a new file, but my problem is this... I am using a CSV file, that has specific data in it, that refers to information on my database. For example... UserNAme, UserID, Address, etc.
I would like to know how to only obtain the username field from the CSV file, then use that information to update other tables in the database, depending on the name I get back. PLEASE HELP. IT's Kind of Urgent. My email address is [email protected]. Any help would be greatly appreciated

you can attach the CSV file as a file to the Access2000 database.
Once it is properly set up, you can hit it as you would any other
read-only table.

Assuming that there are no embedded commas in the data
like: 13,13,"Smith, John",13

This works just fine

Code:

---

Dim a() as string
dim comma as string
Comma = ","
str  ' a line from the csv file that you want to put into fields
UserName = 5  ' assume the username is in field 5
a = Split(str, comma)
strUserName = a(UserName)
