Posts: 1              Hello,

I'm programming now since 6 months and I really like it.
Althoug I still have problems to read data from a .txt file (doubles with ";" 
separator) and store this data in a two-dimensional array in my program.
How do you do this?
I tried several times with i, j (for rows and columns) but I cannot assign the 
value that is read from the file into my two-dim array. It does not work with 
the "append" method. And the problem is that I try to assign a value (which is 
one-dim) to an array (which is two-dim); can anyone help me please???
Thank you so much;
regards,
elisabeth

Location: England              Append only works with one-dimensional arrays.

If you are creating a two-dimensional array of which the size is unknown at the 
start, you may find ReDim useful.

I'm having trouble visualizing exactly what you are trying to do but it sounds 
like you need to read from the file a line at a time,
use Split on the line to produce a new one-dimensional array and 
loop around that array inserting the data into your two-dimensional array. 

Perhaps you could show us some data from the file so we can see what you are 
tring to work with.
For instance, are there always the same number of values in each line?
