help retrieve a value from a text file

[gr1fter 0]

Hello. I have a log file:

Example of text file

THERE ARE LOTS OF VALUES IN THIS TEXT FILE BUT I ONLY WANT TO RETRIEVE WHAT IS IN BETWEEN THE EXIT CODE VALUES <ExitCode>14566</ExitCode>

I would like to search that log file and only get what is between the <ExitCode>??????</ExitCode> markers.

Can you help me with this please, I have an example and I can find the position in number format, but I dont know where to go from there to get the actual value. Do i want to string left from there??

$file = FileRead("C:\test.log")
$result = StringInStr($file, "</ExitCode>")


if $result then
    MsgBox(0, "Found it", "Found it at character position: " & $result)
Else
    MsgBox(0, 'Not Found', "String Not Found")
EndIf

Thanks,

Sweeet! Did not see that one. This is what I did and it worked perfectly

#Include <String.au3>


$file = FileRead("C:\test.log")


$aArray1 = _StringBetween($file, "<ExitCode>","</ExitCode>",-1)

MsgBox(48,"",$aArray1[0])
