Your question is not clear. Can you clarify a bit? What is your specific issue? I'm interpreting that you are trying to parse a large file. Are you running into memory issues? With large files you usually have to read it and parse it in chunks, rather than trying to do it all at once.

Also, what program are you referring to? The thread you point to (your link is broken, by the way) has many examples.

That is still the wrong link. In the first one you had an extra comma at the end. In the second one the link was repeated. This is the correct link: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/How-to-convert-ASCII-to-Array-with-multiple-space-intercolumn/td-p/3...

What is the purpose of the for-loop?

The function Read Text File reads ... text files. It does not read Microsoft Word documents.

Assuming you are saving it as a text file, as I said, with large files you may not be able to do the whole thing at once. You will need to read the file in chunks. The Read Text File function can be set to read lines (right-click on it and select "Read Lines" and wire in the number of lines to read. Repeat until you've read the whole file.

A better solution would be the implementation of this idea. Please vote for it if you like it. 😄

This snippet will chew through the file you attached quite quickly.  It will strip the space from the beginning of the line and combine multiple spaces into a single tab.  You do not have the same number of columns in all rows so there will be some padding in the array.

That was mostly for fun and an excuse to use implies and a feedback node.  What I normally do, and would do here, is to use an array of delimiters in Spreadsheet String to Array with one space, two spaces, three spaces, etc. for the choices.  You'll have to fix the first line which is the only one not to begin with a space, and then ignore the empty first column.

And yes, LV should deal with multiple delimiters, so I would go further and say please vote for it even if you don't like it.

I am more convinced than ever that "how in wrong" is not a sincere person, but a rather a jerk posting for his own pathetic entertainment.

The text of his postings (lack of coherence, nature of the misspellings), the front panel (giant browse button) and the block diagram (single iteration for-loop) of his VI all reek of fake idiocy.

Another clue is that the words in the title of the VI are all correctly spelled (he forgot to try to act like an idiot when he named the VI).
