The posts/replies by the others have pretty much told you how to open the file. The one thing to realize is that your question actually referenced two different concepts.
#1) Opening a file - when dealing with text files you will use the Expert View in QTP where you will be programming in VBScript. At this point you will use FSO to access text files. The FSO Object Model was created by Microsoft as part of VBScript and there is a lot of info out there at MSDN, doing a search on google or taking a training class. #2) Descriptive Programming is a QTP concept where you skip the default way of using the Logical Name in accessing object definitions in the Object Repository, but instead you replace the Logical Name with property definitions to reference the object. This is normally only done in advance programming where you want to loop through a list of values displayed on a web page or you have a property value that is very dynamic and you find it easier to code it this way (typically using variables and/or arrays for the value of a specific property). There is syntax and rules that have to be followed when using descriptive programming. --- Shawn LoPorto Learn QTP Online Today!
