create new line in txt file

[frojat]

Hello, I am a complete noob to autoit and this is going to be my first task.

I have a txt file with data that i imported from csv, i need to start a new line for every comma/tab.

I greatly appreciate your support and I am looking forward to learning here.

frojat,

First, welcome to the AutoIt forums.

When you post here it always helps if you have had a go at solving your problems beforehand. Having some code to work on is a great help - and no-one here is too keen to help the "code it for me" brigade.

Reading the Help file (at least the first few sections - Using AutoIt, Tutorials and the first couple of References) will help you enormously. You should also look at the excellent tutorials that you will find here and here. There are even video tutorials on YouTube if you do not like reading.

There are many ways to do what you want - look at StringReplace in the Help file. If you get stuck, here are 2 possible solutions.

$sText = "123,456,789" & @TAB & "123,456,789" & @TAB & "123,456,789"

$sNewText_1 = StringRegExpReplace($sText, "(,|\x09)", @CRLF)

$sTempText = StringReplace($sText, ",", @CRLF)
$sNewText_2 = StringReplace($sTempText, @TAB, @CRLF)


ConsoleWrite($sText & @CRLF & @CRLF & $sNewText_1 & @CRLF & @CRLF & $sNewText_2 & @CRLF)

true words indeed but it's not that I wanted someone to coded for me as much as a starting point, an idea how to go about it.

Now I have it.

Thanks
