Hi Chris! I'm a Smith too. Welcome.

Ok, so I turned on formatting in npp+(notepad +) and it is delimited by spaces. I changed it to tabs and it worked!! Thanks so much!! I really do appreciate the help and gentle nudge in the right direction. Cheers!

Thanks so much for the direction! I follow the logic for sure. When I tried to run it I got this error Notice: Undefined offset: 3 in C:\wamp\www\transit\write_file.php on line 34 Notice: Undefined offset: 2 in C:\wamp\www\transit\write_file.php on line 34 Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in C:\wamp\www\transit\write_file.php on line 34 zip = 00501 NYHoltsville Suffolk 840 , city = , county = , code = It still wants to shove everything in zip. I tried using the " " space delimiter but it just assigned an index to every character. Any thoughts? Again thanks.

All, So I have a text file I'm reading into an array that looks like this: TEST.TXT 00501 NYHoltsville Suffolk 840 00544 NYHoltsville Suffolk 840 00601 PRAdjuntas Adjuntas 840 00602 PRAguada Aguada 840 00603 PRAguadilla Aguadilla 840 I read this into an array using this snippet: if ($zips=file("test.txt")){ $i=0; foreach($zips as $zip){ echo "\$zips[$i] => $zip.\n"; $i++; } } My output is this: zips[0] => 00501 NYHoltsville Suffolk 840 . $zips[1] => 00544 NYHoltsville Suffolk 840 . $zips[2] => 00601 PRAdjuntas Adjuntas 840 . $zips[3] => 00602 PRAguada Aguada 840 . $zips[4] => 00603 PRAguadilla Aguadilla 840 . What I want to do is break the index up so say, zips[0] would be $zipc =00501, $state=NY, $city=Holtsville, $county=Suffolk, $countryCode=840. I have read chapters on arrays and consulted php.net but I feel the answer is eluding me and perhaps I don't know what to look for exactly. Any help is appreciated! Thanks so much! in advance.
