A

hey everyone I'm having a hard time finding anything to help me with this...
I have a media center program which uses simple text files to store
information about video files. i've collected most of the info i need into a
table. what i want to do is be able to write a text file using vba, and be
able to read one as well, parsing the setting and it's value and writing it
to the appropriate table/record. the text file format is like this:
tvshow=tvshowname
year=2008
actors=name, name

there are more fields but essentially it's field=value
any help on this is much appreciated!!
