Re: Translating CSV to Data Structure (or iterating through a data structure)

Hi, Mike:

Perhaps you could post an example of the layout or definition of your data structure, and a sample of the CSV document ...?

(Code can be posted to code.midrange.com and then post the generated link to it, in your reply to the list.)

You could use "dummy" field names in the data structure and "dummy data" in the sample CSV file, in case there is any "proprietary" information that you do not wish to reveal to "the general public".

HTH,

Mark S. Waterbury

I have a document I need to parse where each row is a different
format. The document is pipe "|" delimited. Is is possible to write a
more generic subprocedure to take each row and a data structure and
fill in the data structure? What I am thinking is iterating through
each field in the data structure and filling it with the corresponding
field from the CSV line that I parse. Is this even possible?
