How do u retrieve data from a text file into different
variables. i.e.
in a text file named "source" , the data is like :
india,1000,japan,200,china,50,singapore,45050
this is given in the first line of the text file.
in the second line of the text file the dta is:
sun,moon,planet,river,earth,water

if u use "readline" method by using FSO concept u can
retrieve the entire line in to a variable. but i want to
import each field (ex: "india" in one variable, "1000" in
another variable etc..). Apprecitae proper replies.
