Scripts: Simplest CSV file reader - page 2

[Sunday Frank Yakubu]

This is just excellent, makes the job easier and faster. You deserve ten programmer coins. I think we should have a cryptocurrency for programmers too. Cheaper but substantial that you can just gift a programmer coin to a deserving individual. Thanks Man for this package

Dear Denis,,

Your script and class has really helped me a lot I have spent over 24 hours trying to see hour I could read multiple lines from a CSV five. I just got it now with this scripts thanks a lot.

I however need more help, The file I want to read is in my common folder, as I have multiple platforms accessing it.  I would normally use handle and the normal format such as handle=FileOpen(fileName, FILE_READ|FILE_ANSI|FILE_COMMON, ";"); to access the file for read or Write with MQL4. 

I had to move the file into my MT5 file folder to use your program, I would like if you can help with how to access it from my "...Terminal\Common\Files" folder

Thanks a lot in advance

change the values from int to uint and type cast the ArraySize to uint
