Reply To: Possible to use data from external text file as parameters?

Hi,

the example is just a small modification of your code:

DIM sarray[]
var = ""
filename = "ProjectNotes.txt"
ch1 = OPEN ("text", filename, "MODE=RO, LIBRARY")
j = 1
sarray[j]=""
repeat
	n = INPUT (ch1, j, 1, var)
	pos = STRSTR (var, "EF-25")
	
	sarray[j] = var
	j = j + 1
until pos = 1
CLOSE ch1
VALUES "refnote" sarray

I haven’t tested it, I guess it should work 🙂

The easiest way to debug GDL when you don’t know what is happening is to use PRINT commands. Or, you can use BREAKPOINT with the debugger, as explained here.
