Assign each line of a text file to a variable

[hitman126]

Hi,

I have what should hopefully be a very simple scenario.

I have a batch file which relies on a text file to retrieve a set of values, line by line. Each line represents a server name. To illustrate, let's say the servers are listed as follows:

WebServer 1
AppServer 2
DatabaseServer 3

For each server name listed in the text file, the batch script should assign it to a unique variable and then perform some other process (e.g. deploy some files), as required for that particular server.

I believe the For Loop will be best suited for this particular requirement and would be extremely grateful if anyone could assist.

Thank you.

Below is an example code that you can try:

Dim linetext as string = objReader.ReadLine
Dim aryTextFile() as string = linetext.Split(" ")
Dim tend as Double = Val(aryTextFile(0))
MsgBox(tend.ToString)

That will put the first part of the first line into the variable tend. To get the remaining variables, read the next line (another .Readline), split it, and put the results into the next variable.

linetext = objReader.ReadLine
aryTextFile = linetext.Split(" ")
Dim texp as Double = Val(aryTextFile(0))
MsgBox(texp.ToString)
