I'm rather new to vb6 and experience some problems on how to filter a textfile.<br />
I have a text file wich I want to import in acces through vb.<br />
This is not a problem, but before I want to import the text file I need to filter the text file.<br />
What I want is to replace the fields containing a value of &quot;120&quot; with &quot;E13&quot; and replace the fields containing &quot;sp001&quot; with &quot;&nbsp;&quot; (nothing, just delete the value)<br />
The textfile is comma seperated...<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />

Filter a textfile

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
