Rod- ReadList is tricky and I usually end up using trial and error to get it right, but this seems to work for your example. In[39]:= !! test.txt s,1,even,21,2.1,40 p,1,even,7,2.1,3.0 d,1,even,5,2.1,3.0 f,1,even,3,2.1,3.0 In[40]:= ReadList["test.txt", Record, RecordLists -> True] Out[40]= {{"s,1,even,21,2.1,40"}, {"p,1,even,7,2.1,3.0"}, {"d,1,even,5,2.1,3.0"}, \ {"f,1,even,3,2.1,3.0"}} -matt Rod <rodolphe6831 at my-deja.com> on 10/02/2000 08:26:55 PM cc: Subject: [mg25503] [mg25475] Reading a file I'm trying to read the following file, s,1,even,21,2.1,40 p,1,even,7,2.1,3.0 d,1,even,5,2.1,3.0 f,1,even,3,2.1,3.0 I want the field separator to be "," so i tried ReadList ["file",{Character,Number,Word,Number,Number,Number},WordSeparators-> ","] but it does not seem to work.
