    Gary,

    Assuming you want this information as strings

    var a = new Array()
    var f1 = new File("Gary.txt");
    if(f1.exists()) {
    f1.open("rt");


    while(!f1.eof()) {
    ss = f1.readln();
    dValue = ss.split(" ");//your data is space delimited
    a.unshift(dValue);
    }
    f1.close();
    }


    Then, when you refer to a[0][0] you will have (Fri)

    a[2][2] would be 11:03am, and so on

    I did not run this to ensure it all works perfectly, but it is pretty close, try putting something together and send me a note on the BB if it does not work out. Remember to use plenty of debugPrintln statements to troubleshoot
