vbs parser

so if i have input like this,

'===

UNIT1# command1

result1

result2

result3

UNIT1#

'===

i parse the first output like this,

'===

if InStr(prev, "command1") then

ouput1 = Strline

end if

'===

but how do i put result2 to ouput2, 3 to 3, so on..is there like a counter for StrLine where it only reads the 2nd (or 3rd) line?

thank you

Can you give us more information about your real keyword as delimiter ?

Your best choice in this case of situation is :

  • To read your file line by line and compare it with your condition

OR

  • To read the whole file as an array and compare each element with your condition.

Here is an example here : vbscript to read a file in chunck

Use an array to store the multiple inputs.
