Hi ppl..
I am trying to solve write a text fle to a word doc. But seems like my program can't work. Is not writing into the doc file though i have tried the following code:

Code:

fileread,data,%A_ScriptDir%/data.txt
Loop, parse, data, `,
{
        read= %A_loopfield%
        FileAppend,%read%,%A_ScriptDir%/transfer.doc
}


the following is the format of my data.txt:
blue,Medium,32,red,large,33
it is seperated by the comma.
As of now it can read the text file seperated by the comma but is not wring into the doc file.

I am using fileappend to write to the doc file. Is it correct?
appreciate the help here.

use \ not / it isn't linux/unix or website you're working on.

Did you know that Word 'doc' files are not just text? Word adds a lot of formatting.

Your script seems to work for me:

data.txt wrote:
blue,Medium,32,red,large,33
transfer.txt wrote:
blueMedium32redlarge33

I'd probably prefer the results on separate lines by adding `n

Code:
FileAppend,`n%read%,%A_ScriptDir%/transfer2.txt

transfer2.txt wrote:

blue
Medium
32
red
large
33

Hi Leef_me
Thanks for your help.
But is there a way for me to input the text in the text file to MS word?
Seems like it works only for text format using my script..

I need it in word format...
Need your advice..
thanks!
