    Hi
    you will need to create some variables

    PathandFilename as text 250
    Line as Text 1024
    InputFile as File

    then in the code

    PathandFilename := 'C:\Text.txt'; // This can be a variable
    if inputfile(PathandFilename).OPEN THEN BEGIN
    InputFile.READ(Line);
    END;

    Hope this gives you some pointers.

    Hi Chandan_kansal

    Sorry for the late reply
    I think that if you are going to Read, Write and Copy you shouldn't use the Automation unless you are going to run a script. You have control from within Navision to do these actions that you require.

    In-house we are using the Job Scheduler to run various codeunits that in turn create read and copy files. :)
