Copying certain text and adding it to an array

[Fewmitz]

Okay, this is sort of like wanting to copy lines of text, but it's character based.

If there was a file on my computer like this:

~~~~

google:6

yahoo:5

ask:3

~~~~

How would I write the code to read line 1, copy all the text up to the colon (google in line 1) to one array, then the text after it (6 in line one) to another, and then move to the next line?

I know the basics, and it seems like I'm missing something incredibly basic, but I can't figure it out.

_FileReadToArray() and then do a For/Next loop through the array. Post some code if you get stuck.
