Subject: finging a certain string within a text file.

Question
what can i do to get a spesifique word within a text file for example ".find("fd_%")" and how can i put it in a variable to use it later as query criteria.  

Answer
Hi Georges,

I liked the use of spesifique here :). to find a word in a text file you will need to load the file either line by line or whole file or in blocks in the memory using Read Methods of StreamReader type classes and then look for the word in the string using either IndexOf methods or Contains method.

Regards,
Rizwan
