In your loop: for(var i:int = 0; i<rows.length; i++) { //you would include an if statement here to not include lines that begin with // var columns:Array = rows[i].split( ",");//split each row into columns temp.push({id: columns[0] ,name:columns[ 1],position: columns[2] }); } I would add this: for(var i:int = 0; i<rows.length; i++) { //you would include an if statement here to not include lines that begin with // var row:String = rows[i]; if (row.substr( 0,2) == "//") { continue; } var columns:Array = rows[i].split( ",");//split each row into columns temp.push({id: columns[0] ,name:columns[ 1],position: columns[2] }); } Hope that helps. --- In flexcod...@yahoogro ups.com, "~[TM3]~[Dev] At0ng[/Dev] ~[/TM3]~" <atong...@...> wrote: > > I recently have this code from gotoandlearnforums to parse datas > separated with commas from a text file but the problem is I dunno (I > really had no idea how) how to exclude rows that begins with a double > slashes (//), hope someone can help me with this.
