One possible solution is this, say you have a folder that is located
at C:\TextFiles.  Edit a VOC entry called TEXTFILES and put the
following:

001 F
002 C:\TextFiles

save it.  Then do the following  CREATE.FILE DICT TEXTFILES 1,1,18. 
This will create the dictionary for this file

Then in your code you could do the following:

OPEN "TEXTFILES" TO TEXTFILES ELSE ABORT
SELECT TEXTFILES
LOOP
   READNEXT ID ELSE EXIT
   READ REC FROM TEXTFILES, ID THEN
      *Do stuff here
   END
REPEAT


Is this what you were looking for?
