Something like this should work:

Dim strTemp As String
Dim strFileName As String
strFileName = "C:\MenuItem.Dat"
Open strFileName For Input As #1 ' Open file for output.
Do While Not EOF(1) ' Loop until end of file.
Line Input #1, strTemp ' Read line into variable.
Debug.Print strTemp ' Print to the Immediate window.
Loop
Close #1

Just replace the "Debug.Print" line with whatever you want to do with
the line of data that was read from the file.

This is what I have to write the data...

Sub MenuItem()

Dim c As Range
Dim strTemp As String
Dim strFileName As String

strFileName = "C:\MenuItem.Dat"
Open strFileName For Output As #1 ' Open file for output.

For Each c In Range("ItemRange")

strTemp = c.Cells(1, 6).Value
If c.Cells(1, 6).Value = "" Then GoTo NextItem
Print #1, strTemp

NextItem:

Next

Close #1 ' Close file.
End Sub

and an the data file looks like this:

000Whop Jr. Whop Jr 000010000000001100000010101
001Whop Jr./Chz Whop Jr/C000011900000001100000010101
003Whopper Whopper 000029900000001100000010101
004Whopper/Chz Whopper/C000033900000001100000010101

I cannot load the data as binary because it was not writen that way. Nor
can I write it at binary because the POS system that uses the file needs it
in a text format...

I actually don't want to dump the array to a range. I would prefer to step
through it and write it each line at a time... I can handle this... I
cannot figure out how to load the array...
