Delete A Line In Text File Or From An Array
I have an Access DB with newsletter preferences in it. What I am trying to do is select small groups to send a custom newsletter out to. So my localhost criteria web page goes to the Access DB and pulls the email addresses that match my current criteria. I then write that list out to a file (newsletterlist.txt). Maybe that is my problem, but I wanted to do that so if my machine crashed while processing, I would know where to recover it. I had looked at arrays and dictionaries but dictionaries aren't good from what I found for hundreds of entries and arrays I can't keep track of..argh.
Anyways, I then wanted to loop through the file (newsletter.txt) find the next email address, with it I can query back to the DB and get preferences and assemble the email and out the custom newsletter goes.
I've seen where MS says deleting a line using the FileSystemObject is not possible, though wanted to see if anyone has found a work around.
Performance isn't that much of an issue for me, as I figured I'd set the thing to running and go to dinner! So anyone have suggestions - even if it means taking the text info to an array, somehow delete one of the addresses and then put it back to a file...anything that can one by one delete the addresses so I know that it all has worked as there would be no email addresses left in the file.

I have a text file named "enterintro.bat". The contents of the file are:
@ECHO OFF
start /w C:skAppActivate.vbs "F4 Event and Entity"
start /w Sleep.vbs 2
start /w C:skSendKeys.vbs "BEC201_IPA{TAB}IPA_SS{ENTER}^S"
What I'm trying to do is to be able to swap out the "BEC201_IPA" and "IPA SS" with different variables. The format of the text file should never change except for swapping out these values. I've used the OpenTextFile method before, but only to append lines to a file, and never to replace an existing line, and I'm not sure how to do it. The best I've come up with so far is this: Code:

I have a textfile that I'd like to put into an Array using VBS. The text file has over 6200 entries. Is it possible to put those entries into an array automatically using VBS? So far all the resources I've looked at show manual creation of the array.

I have an encrypted .txt file created by asp. Its formatted with lines etc. Title followed by description underneath. I need to read this into ASP now, and parse it line by line. On each line read, run the function to unencrpt and add line to a new file.
Its the line by line Im having trouble with. If i do the full textstream no formatting takes place coz im adding the fulltextstream all in one addline call. How can I loop through lines ?

I'm trying to find the line number of a specific piece of text:
do while textFileOpen.AtEndOfStream=false
if textFileOpen.ReadLine=text2Find then
foundAt=textFileOpen.Line
end if
Loop
But it keeps giving the wrong line number
What I'd like is foundAt to be 0 then if the line is found foundAt is to be the line number, if it is not found stay at 0
In the script above foundAt at increments even though the text isn't in the line?
I also get a "Input past end of file" if text2find isn't found

I am writing one line and for a reason I ignore it adds a line which is screwing up a few things.
<%
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
dim sLine sArchivo="switch.txt"
path = Server.MapPath("../Flash")
sFile = path & "" & sArchivo
if fso.FileExists(sFile) then
fso.DeleteFile(sFile)
end if
Set a = fso.CreateTextFile(sFile, True)
if request("radiobutton") = 1 then
sLine = "&ver=si"
else
sLine = "&ver=no"
end if
a.WriteLine (sLine)
a.Close
sRedirect="admin_NoticiasListado.asp?sRadio=" & request("radiobutton")
Response.Redirect(sRedirect)
%>
How come does the extra line come ? I seems I have done already a fews times and it never ocurred before.

I am trying to delete a file off a server (same server asp app is running on). I have done this before and not encountered any problems.
The code I am using is:
Set File = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
ImagePath =
Server.MapPath("......sectionsezineeditionsimagesarticlethu mbs")
ImagePath = ImagePath & "" &
(RS_Content.Fields.Item("CON_Issue_Number").Value) & "" &
(RS_Content.Fields.Item("CON_Image").Value)
However, I am getting an error pointing to the last line of code above:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'
Object required: ''
I'm sure I am missing something simple from staring at this so long.

I am generating a huge CSV file. It is to large to open in notepad.
Can I use the Filesystem Scripting Object to read the very last line of the
file and delete the very last character?
I am hoping the DSO will not have to read thru the whole file. it is probably way to big.

What is the easiest way to 1) delete a File System Website Solution and 2) rename a File System Website solution?
I noticed when I create the ASP.NET Web Site (via File System location option) that I get one directly with my code (.aspx etc files). but the solution is under the default Visual Studio directory. So I assume if I delete these two directories then my solution is really gone?
Renaming a solution seems to be a bit more tricky - what would be the easiest way to rename the solution and the associated directory with the acutal code (.aspx etc files)?

I have the setup working close to what I am after. The upload script I am using has been supplied by 'Lewis Moten'.
Basically what I am after is.
A job application contact form. that includes a input="file" element allowing the user to send a CV, to the address related to that job.
So far locally I have the file uploading, the file sent, and then the file deleted all working fine. Althoug this may well work locally I feel I will have problems when I come to trying this live. Mainly due to timings.
Surely the script would need to know when the file has been uploaded completely, also when the file has been sent completely before delete....
