Why does this string not fully display in a Edit2.text ?

rtdvoiprtdvoip
in Delphi and Kylix
Hiya fellas,

Here is my problem with code extracts:

[code]

filestring,mystring: string[30];

while filestring[i] <> ',' do
begin
mystring[incr] := filestring[i];
i:=i+1;
incr:=incr+1;
end;
Edit2.Text := mystring;

[code]

In the Edit2.text field, all I get is the first index of mystring.
But with the in another Edit#.text with the same assignment using
filestring, I get the complete string.
Only difference is that filestring is a readln from a file
and mystring is incremented depending on filestring.
Is it because mystring does not have a eoln marker?
Or is it something different?

Thanks in advance for your help,
rtdvoip

    What did you set as the initial value of i? It should be set to 1.

    I change my procedure of getting the string into the needed fields.
    Below is the exchange..
    [code]
    procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
    var
    vlStringList: TStringList;
    filein: textfile;
    filestring: String;
    begin
    assignfile (filein,'C: est.txt');
    reset(filein);
    while not eof(filein) do
    Begin
    Edit1.Text:= 'Running';
    readln(filein,filestring);
    vlStringList := TStringList.Create();;
    vlStringList.Delimiter := ',';
    vlStringList.DelimitedText:=filestring;
    Query1.ParamByName('Rate_Plan').AsString := vlStringList[0];
    Query1.ParamByName('Target').AsString := vlstringList[1];
    Query1.ParamByName('Breakout').AsString := vlstringList[2];
    Query1.ParamByName('Price').AsString := vlstringList[3];
    Query1.Close;
    Query1.ExecSQL;
    Query1.Close;
    end;
    Edit1.Text := 'Finished';
    end;
    [code]

    There is just 1 thing, which might pose problems: you don't free the stringlist object. By the way, when I started here I posted a small function, which returns an indexed part of a string bound by a character delimited. Here is the link: http://www.programmersheaven.com/c/MsgBoard/read.asp?Board=4&MsgID=64086
    Perhaps you might find it useful in the future.
