Hello,

i want to import data from the 13 line of a file ,i am using a datareport ,i found that is possible to increase the position of reading (CurrFile.SEEK(21); ).but i have to begin importing from 13 line because i don’t know the size of the 13 line so i can use CurrFile.SEEK(size);

Iam using microsoft dynamics navision 4.0.

What’s on the first 12 lines? Headers?

here’s a post on how to skip a header line or x amount of header lines::

Is the 13th Line identified by some character?
How about using a count and importing into variables.

OnPreDataItem()
LineCount := 0;

OnAfterImportRecord()
LineCount := :LineCount +1;
if LineCount <13 then begin
CurrDataport.SKIP;
end else Begin
…Map your variablesa to nav fields here
end;
