Getting a block of data from with a text file

[Rob]

Hi All,

Any ideas on how to read a txt file from asp and get it to grab one block of
information?
Sample txt file;

Windows IP Configuration
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
PPP adapter SpeedTouch UK:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 81.128.131.42
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 81.128.131.42

I wish to grab the PPP ip address of 81.128.131.42 (the 81 is the only
static part of the ip) and then create a hyper link on the outputted page
using this ip address.

Thanks in advance,
Rob

IPConfig huh? :}
Use FSO to read it all in then use the Instr() Mid() Left() Right()
functions to break to what you need.
