Searching For a Word in a file and outputing a number

Hello,

I need help in C.

I'm trying to automatically search a file for a word given the date, the file was created. After searching and finding that word. There should be a number in minutes next to the word. I want to scan that number and output it.

Can someone help me with the code.


For example:
File name is "2001.05.12.txt"
Word I'm searching for is "Hello"
Next to that word should be some number "8"

Well, you can just use some time functions to get the date and then when you open the file with the appended date in it. Then, when you read in the file, you get the string. Now, will it always be "Hello"? Otherwise, you can sort through all the chars in the file and tell if they are numerical or not.

Thanks for the help,

Program is working fine now.
