I am having trouble of making the vbscript to read the text line by line. This is the steps the code should do: Read folder.txt Open the file listed in folder.txt Echo the contents inside of test.txt Read folder-list.txt Open the file listed in folder-list.txt Open dirlist.txt and echo line by line An example of what folder.txt contains: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[ Go! Go! Heaven!!]_____________25 -______ ___- [525067]\test.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[12CUT] _____ (Gakkou no Kaidan) [518382]\test.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[2____] _____!__CD__________ [521206]\test.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[Ability] _____________________ [514182]\test.txt An example of what folder-list.txt contains: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[ Go! Go! Heaven!!]_____________25 -______ ___- [525067]\dirlist.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[12CUT] _____ (Gakkou no Kaidan) [518382]\dirlist.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[2____] _____!__CD__________ [521206]\dirlist.txt C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[Ability] _____________________ [514182]\dirlist.txt An example of what each dirlist.txt contains C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[ Go! Go! Heaven!!]_____________25 -______ ___- [525067]\00.jpg C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[ Go! Go! Heaven!!]_____________25 -______ ___- [525067]\a_01.jpg C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\[ Go! Go!

Heaven!!]_____________25 -______ ___- [525067]\a_03.jpg And this is the vbscript code Option Explicit Dim objFSO, strTextFile, strData, strLine, arrLines, aniTextFile, aniData, aniLines, meLine, objTextFile, fso, inputFileList, sFolderName, fname Dim iim1, iret, iret2, iret3, i CONST ForReading = 1 strTextFile = "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\folder.txt" Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") strData = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strTextFile,ForReading).ReadAll arrLines = Split(strData,vbCrLf) For Each strLine in arrLines strData = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strLine,ForReading).ReadAll WScript.Echo strData aniTextFile = "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\ArtistCG\folder-list.txt" Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") aniData = objFSO.OpenTextFile(aniTextFile,ForReading).ReadAll aniLines = Split(aniData,vbCrLf) Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set listFile = fso.OpenTextFile(aniLines).ReadAll do while not listFile.AtEndOfStream fName = listFile.ReadLine() WScript.Echo fName Loop Next So far I only got steps 1 to 4 working but I can't get it to read dirlist.txt. Any solutions here?
