trung0407 Posted September 7, 2010 Share Posted September 7, 2010 hey, I need the answer for that too. Actually I want to modify some strings in a very big file size, directly in the memory. I don't want to use heavy method like FileWrite and overwrite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want $sData to contain the whole file's contents then you need to either write it like this: While 1 $sData &= FileReadLine($file_Omx_Wampa_PHP_Mangold) ;<===Notice the "&" before the "=" If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop MsgBox(0, "Line read:", $sData) Wend Or like this without the While..Wend: $sData = FileRead($file_Omx_Wampa_PHP_Mangold) MsgBox(0, "Line read:", $sData) If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.
