open and read commands

[Mike Fedkiw]

filepro 5.0.09

I need to open a .txt file and read each line so I can compare to an existing filepro file. 

does anyone have an example of the syntax for the open and read commands. I cant get past two lines of code without a syntax error. 

This is what I have. Syntax error at "open"

aa="c:/jpgfile.wri"
