Re: rtf files

hi steven, i don't know the rft-file-syntax, but i would start here. if you find out, how the page break is defined, you could splitt the whole file by that. but i assume, that works only on manual page-breaks. and like other text-files (i.e. .txt or .doc) the page-break is done by the progamm that opens the file. in that case, maybe a splitt by chapter or by a special amount of lines would be a start? ciao SVEN Steven wrote: > I need some advice on how to go about importing rtf files page by page > seperatly into a mysql database, or some way that can read a file and > break each page into page sized sections, maybe an array, that i could > then import to a database. > > The rtf files are mostly about '7mb' in size, and contain anything > upto 200 pages, and need to be imported by : > > id, filename, page_number , page_content. > > I can read whole file into a data table, but that doesnt split the > file page by page. > > Has anyone any suggestion to how this can be accomplished, > > Steven
