The TextFieldParser object provides methods and properties for parsing structured text files. Parsing a text file with the TextFieldParser is similar to iterating over a text file, while the ReadFields method to extract fields of text is similar to splitting the strings. The TextFieldParser can parse two types of files: delimited or fixed-width.
Some properties, such as Delimiters and HasFieldsEnclosedInQuotes are meaningful only when working with delimited files, while the FieldWidths property is meaningful only when working with fixed-width files. The following table lists examples of tasks involving the Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser object.
