dim filesys, text, readfile, contents
set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set text = filesys.CreateTextFile("c:\somefile2.txt")
text.WriteLine "A quick example of the SkipLine method"
text.WriteLine "Well, maybe not so quick!"
text.WriteLine "This should be enough!"
text.close
set readfile = filesys.OpenTextFile("c:\somefile2.txt", 1, false)
readfile.SkipLine
contents = readfile.ReadLine
readfile.close
Response.Write "Line 2 contains the following text - '" & contents & "'."
%>
