File lines loaded in ListBox

[801119]

Hey all out here!!
I have got a problem with a test program I am writeing.
This program is to load a file into a ListBox which I cal FileIndex
Each line in the file is written to a line in FileIndex
So far I got the program to write as it is supposed to
however, in the end of each line it writes a symbol that loks like this []
I suppose it is a rowBreak(or somthing like it).
Is there a way to exclude this sign?

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{/*
switch(MessageBox(Handle,(AnsiString("OK to erase and load new file?&quot).c_str(), "Load new file...",MB_OKCANCEL | MB_ICONHAND))
{
case ID_CANCEL : Abort(); // Ignore this part is is not a vital code
}*/

FileIndex->Items->Clear(); // Clear all lines
if(OpenDialog->Execute()) // Select a file
{
FILE *f;
char rows[82];
AnsiString line,name,value;
name=OpenDialog->FileName;
f=fopen(name.c_str(),"r" // open file
while(fgets(rows,81,f)) // Parts of this code I got
{ // from an other guy, I just
line=(AnsiString)rows; // made it suit my purpose
int max = strlen(line.c_str()); // get length of row
value=line.SubString(0,max);
FileIndex->Items->Add(line); // Write file line to FileIndex, the ListBox
}
}
}

Thanks for any help!!

Martin!!

Possible TrimRight/Left to strip unwanted chars before adding to ListBox

How do I TrimRight/Left?? Never heard about it!

801119,

[tab]TrimRight and TrimLeft are AnsiString methods. The will trim spaces and control characters from AnsiString variables. Of course, you could just use Trim[i/] which trims both left and right of the string. For example,

value = value.Trim();


[tab]Question, why didn't you just do int max = line.Length(); // get length of row instead of int max = strlen(line.c_str()); // get length of row?
