Retreving text--please help!

[Guest_imported]

Hello all you wonderfull programmers out there,

I hope this makes sense.

My problem is that i have a whole bunch of text in a text document and I want to retrive the text one line at a time.

Example:

Here is some usless text.
I dont like usless text.
hrm, what is this?

What i want, is I want to be able to call the lines one at a time in order going down the line.

does wordwrap affect this at all???

please help.

thanks very much in advance

i am an AP student and i know that the way to do it using the AP class "apstring" u can use a getline function to get one line at a time. i know u cant use that but basically what it does is retrieve character by character until it reaches and endline character, u can figure out how to code it from there...its not that hard
