Hi,
I am trying to read data from a no of Text files (usually of same format, i.e. 1 table of 2 columns.)into an excel sheet. e.g. The Data in TEXT file looks like: Fill Across dotted lines..... Blank Mail Subject: FlashLite Order Blank Blank Agent Name: | Smokey Joe Teams Name: | Mavericks Date : | 07/10/2005 Time : | 10:00 PM GMT Blank Blank Subscriber#:| FS2212WE Work ID : | 1234 So, if you see, the Label & Value seperator is a ":" (except for Time). Also, there are blanks in between the lines. Now, i have a worksheet with Similar Labels (except Mail Subject which will be the name of the worksheet to Activate)for Column Headers starting from "A1". What i am trying to do is to read each line into a variable (Except First Line "Fill across dotted lines..."). Discard any Blank lines. So variable will contain both Label & Value. Then Split & Trim this variable into 2 parts at delimiter ":", & then get it into an Array. So Array will contain Label first & then Value e.g. & will not contain any Blank values. MyArray(0)=Label1 MyArray(1)=Value1 MyArray(2)=Label2 MyArray(3)=Value2 etc.... Once Array is created, Activate the worksheet with name "FlashLite Order" from MailSubject value in TEXT File, Compare Labels in Array with Column Headers in Excel Sheet, & then dump corresponding values for text file labels under the Excel Column Headers. Please Help! |
