Read a line of a file that contains

[dinotom]

Can files be read from the web or the cloud?

I am trying to read this file but get the file open error.

#include <FileConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

;Assign the file path to a variable
Local $sFilePath = "C:\Automation\test.txt"
Local $sFilePathAzure ="https://batlgroupimages.blob.core.windows.net/files/test.txt"
Local $nLineNumberToLookFor = 0

;Open the file test.txt in append mode.
;If the folder C:\Automation does not exist, it will be created.
Local $hFileOpen = FileOpen($sFilePathAzure, $FO_APPEND + $FO_CREATEPATH)
;Display a message box in case of any errors.
If $hFileOpen = -1 Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "An error occurred while opening the file.")
EndIf

;Set the file position to beginning for reading the data from the beginning of the file.
FileSetPos($hFileOpen, 0, $FILE_BEGIN)

;Read the data from the file using the handle returned by FileOpen
;Local $sFileRead = FileRead($hFileOpen)
;Read the 2nd line of data from the file using the handle returned by FileOpen
Local $sFileReadLine = FileReadLine ($hFileOpen,2)
;Close the handle returned by FileOpen.
FileClose($hFileOpen)

Download it and open it, or, use _INET* functions to get the text of the file and process it

Download it, is different than opening it?

How do you download files from the cloud?

Found it, use InetGet

Exactly what I was going to write

$s = BinaryToString(InetRead("https://batlgroupimages.blob.core.windows.net/files/test.txt"))
Msgbox(0,"", $s)
$n = 2      ; # line to read
$2nd_line = StringRegExpReplace($s, '(?m)(^\N*\R?){' & $n-1 & '}(.*)(?1)*', "$2")
Msgbox(0,"", $2nd_line)
