  Load a text file that have values separated by # character (similar to a CSV file) into a table. The text file contains about 50 columns and I want to load only 7 columns from it into the new table (that will have only 7 columns). And to save the output as a .docx file.

  Hi Remus,

  You can use the code snippet given below to save the data from the text file into the array so that you save load it into the table:

  String input = File.ReadAllText(@"Data.txt");
  int i = 0, j = 0;
  var rows = input.Split('\n');
  string[,] result = new string[rows.Count(), 7];
  foreach (var row in rows)
   {
    j = 0;
    foreach (var col in row.Trim().Split('#'))
      {
        if (j < 7)
         {   
          result[i, j] = col.Trim(new char[] { '"'});
          j++;
         }
       else
         {
           break;
         }
      }
     i++;
   }
