Read ASCII with InStream

kirkostas

I have an ASCII file which contains empty lines, and I have wrote a function which open the file, removes empty lines and re-create it in order to use it in a dataport.
I have manually calculate each line characters.
Each line is 211 chars. So when I use

streamInTest.READTEXT(Txt, LineLength);

the variable LineLength is 211 for this specific file.
Is there any property or any method which returns me each line length?
I want to use the same code without needed to enter manually the line length...

Also I have the same problem.
Is there any solution?

Thank you

It depends if the file is in text mode or binary mode. If you are in text mode, each READTEXT wll read one line. If you are in binary mode, it will read as many bytes as the length of the variable is.
