It's not entirely clear to me what you want to accomplish (what text
file are we talking about?).
Perhaps you can find some inspiration here:

I thought that the easiest way of doing this would like this:
1) I log in to the bank and display the abstract of my account
2) I save the HTML page as a HTML page
3) upload that page to web2py
4) web2py parses that file and saves data into a database
This way my application doesn´t have to know have to log into the bank.
