    You could read the file in one line at a time into a buffer, which would be a char array. From there, you can process it as you wish.

    Lookup:
    fgets() - read line from file
    strchr() - find a character within a string.
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]
