Reading a txt file

Hi,





Set the cursor position to the beginning of the needed line and use the aqTextFile.ReadLine or VBScript native ReadLine method:

LineNumber = 7

Set myFile = aqFile.OpenTextFile("C:\1.txt", aqFile.faRead, aqFile.ctANSI)

myFile.SkipLine(LineNumber - 1)

Log.Message(myFile.ReadLine)

Thanks!



Can I do a Check Point on that? If the text didnt match a certain string then fail the test? I'm working in jscript.



Thanks again,

Chris

Hi,





You can post an error in this case - this will stop your test (note that the "Stop on error" option of your project properties must be enabled):

LineNumber = 7;

myFile = aqFile.OpenTextFile("C:\\1.txt", aqFile.faRead, aqFile.ctANSI);

myFile.SkipLine(LineNumber - 1);

if (myFile.ReadLine() != "stringToCompare")

  Log.Error("The strings are not equal");
