I'm trying to get a script to read line-by-line text from a file into a variable.. say @LineInfo I then split that @LineInfo variable into .. uh. let's say @LineData I can get the @LineInfo -> @LineData split ok, but the file -> @LineInfo I can't get. Do I have to basically do a "while <INPUT>" and put THAT info into a variable ($LineInfo[1], $LineInfo[2], $LineInfo[3] etc) or is there an easier way?!!? please tell me there is.. heehehe :) Thanks. -Tim- timjudd@teleport.com | *NO* chain letters of any kind!
