Reading Line by line

[BMLekki]

I want to read Line by Line from a txt file useing the FileSystemObject. When i use .ReadLine
my string still contains all of what was in the txt file. Once i get one line i want to write it to another file and then go back the txt file to read a new line. Any Ideas??

private Sub cmdReadFile_Click()
Dim InStream as TextStream

BodyText = App.Path & "\body.txt"
set InStream = FSys.OpenTextFile(BodyText, 1, false, false)
While InStream.AtEndOfStream = false
TLine = InStream.ReadAll
strBody = strBody & TLine & vbCrLf
Wend
' Text1.Text = strBody
set InStream = nothing

Dim AddressInStream as TextStream

AddressText = App.Path & "\email.txt"
set AddressInStream = FSys.OpenTextFile(AddressText, 1, false, false)
While AddressInStream.AtEndOfStream = false
TLine = AddressInStream.ReadLine
strAddress = strAddress & TLine & vbCrLf
Wend
Text1.Text = strAddress & strBody
set AddressInStream = nothing
End Sub

email.txt
looks like this

[email protected]
[email protected]

with about 200 address.

Every time you say this:

strAddress = strAddress & TLine & vbCrLf

It is appending the new stuff to the old stuff. You need to just use:

strAddress = TLine & vbCrLf

HTH,

strAddress = TLine & vbCrLf

This only gives me the last line in the email.txt.
