If you're importing from a text file, then try the line input:
'Display the contents of c:\config.sys a line at a time.
Dim text As String, fileNum As Integer
fileNum% = FreeFile()
Open "c:\config.sys" For Input As fileNum%
Do While Not EOF(fileNum%)
Line Input #fileNum%, text$
Print text$ ' Prints one line of config.sys
Loop
Close fileNum%
Then you loop through the full line: text$ to find your variables. The line Input will recognize, or should recognize the eol character for any platform.. however it might not if the text file was created on one platform and then input into another platform.
Regards!
