Thanks for that tip btw.

I just looked it up, and although I didn't use the same method, it helped me understand how the file OM works.

The file is a tab delimited excel sheet in txt format.

Encountering a £ sign where the txt file only contains 1 line doesn't seem to be a problem, it only occurs when there seems to be over 20 lines of text.

When using readln(), if trying to read in a text file of over 50 lines, I get an interesting problem.

The readln() reads the string up until but not including the £ character.

Anyone experienced this before? And if so, any ideas? I do want to read in the whole string.

I managed to discover the origin of this message.

I was using an undo group, and well.. it wasn't working. So removed the undo group as it wasn't required anyway.

Sorry everyone.

Hey,

I'm having a bad time with one of my scripts, and I was wondering if anyone could clarify this message for me:

After Effects error: attempt to remove an item from a position outside of list length.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much.

As far as I know it isn't possible to do so. The method I use is using the substring command in javascript. You have to set a cut off point for the line to break at. I.e. if you want it to wrap at the 45th character, you need to set this. if (text.length > 45) { Line1 = text.substring(0, 45) Line2 =...
