Hi
I need to read 2 diff parts of a text file into 2 string variables.
What is the most efficient way to do this?
Text file is an html file and basically I want to read the contents found between <head> and </head> and then between <body> and </body>.
Anyone know how this is done?

Using Regular expression you can extract the data.
First Store the data of text file into a string then by using following you can extract for head
/*For Head Section*/
System.Text.RegularExpress
MessageBox.Show(test_Mtch.
/*For Body Section*/
System.Text.RegularExpress
MessageBox.Show(test_Mtch.
Hope this solves your problem
Dim str As StreamReader = File.OpenText("c:\temp\stu
dim hs as string ="<head>"
dim he as string =<\head>"
dim b as bool=false
dim headcontent as string=""
Dim s As String = str.ReadLine()
While str.Peek() <> -1
s = str.ReadLine()
If s.Contains(hs) Then
b=true
end if
if s.contains(he) Then
b=false
end if
if b=true then
headcontent=headcontent + s
end if
end while
