The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Asked by Sara_j_11 in Visual Basic Programming

I have 4 text files in a directory. These are fixed length files and they have fields, which start at the same position. I mean the column names and their starting / ending position is the same , but the values will differ. All fields are either numeric (tight justified, left zero filles) or alphanumeric(left justified and right blank filled). I have given column names just for clarity sake. In reality, these files do not display the column names, but we can find that out since I know that the second column starts at positon 10.. it is sorted by id in every txt file.

Example of first txt file:

Id name number

01 tim BY000

example for second txt file

id name number

13 donny 123GH

My aim is to write a function in VB 6.0 to take the contents of the 2nd , 3rd and 4th txt file and copy it into the first txt file and then sort by id again Kindly help.
