Simple file reading

[Phaser]

I have managed to work with tesseract without using tesseratc.au3 include, just using ShellExecuteWait as I found using the command line with tesseract worked just fine.

I am getting tesseract to perform and return a result like this

ShellExecuteWait(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Tesseract-OCR\tesseract.exe", "image.png out")

The result it prints to out.txt is correct but for some reason I cannot display the result with a MsgBox

$file = FileOpen("out.text",0)
$result = FileReadLine($file, 1)

MsgBox(0,"The Result", "Number " & $result)

As tesseract writes it to the first line each time I just want to display it in a msgbox so I don't have to keep checking the text file, what am I doing wrong?

your code should read out.txt NOT out.text

next time add error check to find problem 

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf
