Try putting in DATA_420 just the following:

"How High"
"High Quality"

Darkbasic then reads the first string and name it like TITLE$ and reads the second string and name it QUALITY$. That's all.
Save and try again! It should work

What if i wanted to search through several files like

Data_001
Data_002
Data_003

to get the information of the closest title search ?

Open to Read 1,"Data_420.txt"
Read String 1,TITLE$
Read String 1,SCREEN$
Read String 1,QUALITY$
Read String 1,HOUR$
Read String 1,MIN$
Read String 1,SIZE$
Print "Title : ",TITLE$
Print "Screen : ",SCREEN$
Print "Quality : ",QUALITY$
Print "Length : ",HOUR$," Hour and ",MIN$," Minutes"
Print "Size : ",SIZE$," kb"

Here's what i got now but what would be the best way to make it search for a user entered result from several files.
