open file filename for read read from file until EOF put it into DaFile close file Filename now DaFile is a copy of the contents of Filename and you can use string and line manipulation on the variable DaFile > The next question is how are arrays implemented in Revolution?.

How can this be done? > reading lines MUST occur with a variable, it doens't seem to work with files just guessing here.... so put line X of DaFile into MyLine --make MyLine an array --research the "split" command, arrays are not very well documented in the help text. split MyLine with somedelimiter --get the keys of the array for later put the keys of MyLine into MyKeys now you have an array and the keys > Finally, I tam interested in the database capabilities of Revolution > (especially the Valentina engine).
