Line Input - Help!!!

[James Bond 007]

I want to do a Line Input after I found a certain word. So, if I found the word through a text file, I want to do the Line Input in the next line.

Any suggestion???

Open "C:\Textfile.txt" For Input As #1
Line Input #1, strLine$
Text1.text = Text1.text & strLine$
Close #1

That what you want?

Thanks Matthrew but I already got that part.


Example of my text file

User1
User2
User3
User4
User5
User6

Beside using a loop going through each line, how can I get the line after I find User2. In this example, once I use instr to find "User2", it should return the next line which is "User3".

Does anyone understand what I mean?

I want to find a word using instr function and get the next line of data. Is it possible to do a Line Input in the middle of the text file?

Thanks

It is of course, if you only know where to start reading, use seek statement and function to locate next position to read.

What is the difference with these two?
Loc(1) & Seek(1)


What is the difference with these two?
Filelen and LOF(1)

[kedaman]

no diff between loc and seek functions
Filelen needs a filename and lof needs a open filenumber

[Hollie]

Filelen is used when the file is not open.
LOF only works if the file is open.
