// place the contents of a file in an array (1 line per element)
$array = file("filename");
// loop through each line of the file
foreach($array as $line)
{
list($MLSNo, $Status, $DOM, $Address, $Unit, $City, $Area, $LP, $SP, $BT,
$SqFt, $Bed, $Bth, $PB, $Gar, $Garno, $YrBlt, $TBMap, $Acres, $LotSqFt, $HOA,
$Freq) = split("|", $line);
// do something with the variables
}
