Hi, I have an example .txt file which contains the following string of characters "There are 5 bottles of milk" (without quotes) in my script dir so I have the following code to open/read the file #include <FileConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <WinAPIFiles.au3> $File = FileOpen(@ScriptDir & "\testfile.txt") $FileRead = FileRead($File) $hFileRead = $FileRead I'd like to set the number 5 as a variable to be displayed in a MsgBox - My question is how would I do this, knowing that the number '5' in the .txt file could change outside of autoit? I was looking at the _FindInFile UDF found on this forum here autoitscript.com/forum/topic/132159-findinfile-search-for-a-string-within-files-located-in-a-specific-directory/ as I thought it may be a step in the right direction but I couldn't see how I'd do what I need to do. Please can anyone help? Thanks am632
