To be honest, i've never used the read file for ... lines.
I was expecting that there might be an error if one tries to read more lines
than there are left for
Just read for 10,000 lines and check for empty each time.

Regarding the loop.
you could do a
put the detailed files
to get the file size of that csv file.
With that size you would now how often you have to run the loop

Thank you Matthias, I wasn’t aware of that ability to open the file and read
its contents straight from the disk.
A quick experiment looks positive - no hanging and fast access - so I just need
to work on the loop.
Much obliged.
Best,

Couldn't you read the file partially
you would open the file for read
open file tFile for read
then in a repeat loop you could read e.g. 1 lines and process the data
read from file tFile for 1 lines
Just a thought.

Life Is Too Short For Boring Code
Hi folks,
I’ve a 3GB CSV file with 18M rows from which I need to create a subset CSV file
for the rows containing tString. The following script results in LiveCode
becoming unresponsive, so I’m wondering if I’m missing an obvious trick or what
alternative approach I might take...
