Hi XuMuk,
If you want load the complete file into memory, just get the filelenght with "lenght = Lof()" of your specific file, then allocate the needed memory with "result = AllocateMemory(#Memory, Size, Flags)" and load read your file using "ReadData(*MemoryBuffer, LengthToRead" into your allocated memory! This is only a basical example how to get it work. Please note, that reading files with >256 or 512 MB, like movies for example will slow down your program, due fact of reading/writing all time temp to the big temp file of windows...

I think this is all you wanted?

OpenFile(1,"c:\temp\myfile.txt"); open the text file for reading
While Eof(1)=0 ; while there is some left to read
a$=ReadString(); read one line to string
Debug(a$); display the line
Wend;
CloseFile(1)
