I have been trying to process some text documents of 15,000 lines or so. I wrote a program that reads line by line and copies characters if a string is present.
The Code works but when I input 10,000 lines or more of text the Computer uses 50% of the computing power, but only intermittently like --- --- --- Use --- --- --- Use --- ---, where each --- dash represents 0.5 seconds.
I don't know if I should use some sort of Dim as long feature, as I'm not really sure what this does and what it would mean to use it. It seems to be BLOATING... but I'm not really sure.
Is there a code for telling the Process that the document about to be processed is really long, so that it doesn't take 10 minutes to process a 15,000 line document, and might use the processor like Use Use Use Use Use... etc?
Any Help would be appreciated
Thanks, Mike
