I'm trying to copy this file , line by line, and assign it to a string array, but there seem to be no carriage returns in the text, so VB only inputs the first line. The file is system.1st on C:\. I know everybody has this file, so could somebody look at this?

intCount = 0
Open "C:\system.1st" For Input As #1
Do Until EOF(1) = True
intCount = intCount + 1
Line Input #1, strData(intCount)
Loop
intNumLines = intCount
Print intNumLines
Print Len(strData(1))

intNumLines prints as 1
Len for this line prints (in my case) 142, which is the number of characters in the first line. Anybody know why or, better yet, how to get everybit of this code into my string array?

thanks
