Reading from TXT file - page 2

and when you add this to the bottom:

Result attached..weird... 

[lippmaje]

Check if you are really opening the right file. Change the file name to be sure.

Dear

Here the code updated as suggested. 

I attached the .txt file for conference and compile results. I still not hold the data from ''sample.txt'' in the ''trade'' structure, anyone has another suggestion?

Why do u code 

short delimiter=';';

when ur sample.txt file is obviously delimited by ','?

Also, you need to re-save your sample.txt in unicode encoding (windows Notepad can do that).

[Nguyen Nga]

Replace with the code. then it is ok

   short delimiter=',';
   int fileHandle = FileOpen("Sample.txt",FILE_ANSI|FILE_READ|FILE_CSV,delimiter);

[Seng Joo Thio]

Oh yes! using the FILE_ANSI flag should achieve the same effect as re-saving the file in unicode.

Thanks !! Finally solved. Here the correct code.
