What am I missing here?



Kee, I've never had occasion to use unicode yet. Would you elaborate a little please?

Hi Gregory,

Is the filesize var well reinited to "0" at the begining of each new
year stories parsing ?


Pierre, not sure what you mean here. Because they are big, each file is read separately. I don't tally the size of what I've read in; I just look for an end-of-file result, save my index, and delete a big local variable called outputRecords.

---The guts of my file reading script---

   repeat
      read from file inputFile until "Canada NewsWire"
      put the result into resultOfRead  -- Check for eof

      --Clean line feeds
      replace crlf with return in it
      replace numToChar(13) with return in it

      if resultOfRead is not empty and \
("Canada NewsWire" is not in it or the number of lines in it <= 5)
      then
         put outputRecords after url ("File:" & outputFile)
         delete local outputRecords
         exit repeat
      else
-- The next one skips "Canada NewsWire" in the copyright statement on the eighth line. if the number of lines in it <= 5 and resultOfRead is empty then next repeat
      end if

        -- Process the contents of the headline and story here.


Best,
