Hi again,

I want to know how to read the contents of a txt file.. My txt file contains three values seperated by commas.. I wanted to fetch them one at a time and display them in a form of three text boxes..

How to get this done?

Hi Divya,

Most of the questions you ask are answered here.

In this case, here.

A bit of file handling and a bit of String handling (Search for split() in python) would do the job.

Hi,
if you want to split your string separated by comma than try this code

y='hi,how,r,u'
print string.split(y,',')

hope this helps you.

Remember that you need to import the string module to use that code. But it's much easier to do it directly:

y='hi,how,r,u'
print y.split(',')

You may find 'pickle' module useful here.
It helps you store and retrieve different structures in a text file. No need for any manual conversion or string analysis.

simple use - SAVE:

import pickle
f = open(file, 'w')
pickle.dump(variable, f)
f.close()

simple use - LOAD:

f = open(file, 'r')
variable = zpickle.load(f)
f.close()
