I want to extract some information in a text file that is not tab, comma and space separated. The format of the text file is actually unknown.
The problem now is, i want to extract like three lines from each section of the text file content, break the lines into different part and use the broken info to populate an already created table in ms access ( all these should be carried out at a press of a cmd button using VBA code in access or VB code)

Using the information above, i want to create a table in access that will contain 10 or above columns. these colunm are;
1. User Label colunm will contain this info: INTER_LAG_PTO i.e the first set of characters after the ":" and before the first "/" sign
2. ADM Type: Name of the Mahine (to be determined using code)
3. Unit Type: A21E1 (Used to determine name of the machine)
4. Site Name: Name of the site (this will be populated from anoda table called Sites)
5. Rack: r01 (another set of string after the first "/")
6.SubRack: sr01 (another set after the r01)
7.Slot Number: sl22 (another set after the sr01)
8.Port Number: daughter#01(another set after the last"/")
9.Release
10.ANV Part Number: 3AL78848BAAH01
Note, not all the columns will contain information at this time.
This is what i want to achieve in access 2000. Each section (i.e all the contents before the long dashes (-----------------------------------------) sign should be on a row in the table created. This will be done for all the sections in all the txt files.
I hope this is clear enough for now. Pls can anybody help me achieve this.
Thank you.
