I dont know where to begin..
Can someone kindly give a code on getting certain words or number from a .txt file outside DBpro?

For example(just to clarify my question)>>


On the txt document:

10001 sniper 10 20 0 0
10002 gun 10 10 0 1
10003 grenade 100 10 0 0

On the DBpro file:

Id like to look for 10003 on the txt
get the string grenade
get the integer 100
get the integer 10
get the bool 0

If it is possible, can you tell me how to load a data like the number or string from a certain column of the certain row of 10003?

LAST QUESTION:
Can i do this?If not, why?
load $bmpname.bmp 1,1
$bmpname=anyword


SIDECOMMENT:
Sorry about the terrible grammar. I hope you get my point and give me some help.

And don't forget the search option - this subject has been covered many many times in the past.

As a new user this link also might be helpful so you get the best out of the forums in the future:

(Item 8 in particular, though all sections will keep you on the right track).
