Stumped on loading text file to variables

[blackknight469]

hey everybody! :D
I am a major noob at programming and I am using VB '08 Express and want to use a text file to set variables on seperate forms of one program. What I would like to know is if i should use seperate files for each form and how to structure the text file and load it into seperate variables.

Example:
(text file)
User1 Info1, User1 Info2, User1 Info3, User1 Info4, etc.
User2 Info1, User2 Info2, User2 Info3, User2 Info4, etc.

(form code)
User1 Info1 = value1
User2 Info1 = value2
etc.

Is this even possible in VB? I have been reading posts for two days and it looks like its possible but not easy.

Any help is MUCH appreciated..

I think it's possible to take values from file.TXT
btw, i'm using VB 2005, i don't know it is work for vb 2008 or not.

I take value per line from file.txt using an arraylist.

dim array as new arraylist

'open file.txt n allow file.txt to be read
dim file as new filestream ("[your file address], filemode.open, fileaccess.read")

'reading file.txt
dim sr as streamreader(file)

'inserting file.txt value to an array
while (sr.peek > -1)
      array.add (sr.readline)       'read value per line 
end while

'don't forget close the file.txt 
sr.close
file.close

'see file.txt value 1st line
msgbox(array(0))

for example:
file.txt calling value
line 1 : info1 array(0)
line 2 : info2 array(1)

i hope this help U...
