Best practice: Exchanging (external) data with scripts

$

Hi developers,

 

I'm seeking after a way to get data from an external file into WB for parsing it there:

 

I detect how many files in a folder have to be processed, then in a loop I gather further info and write that into a text file.

This file will contain 1 to n lines with 2 values each (delimited by a colon):

 

abcdefghijk:1.0

lmnopqrstuv:1.1

...

 

Each line will be split (StrFormat) in %_1 and %_2 for dynamically writing registry data.

Is there any chance of retrieving the file's content, even if it's somewhat provisional...? Maybe with AutoIt or environment variables...?

 

I just can't imagine using the ini file structure for that purpose, that would be too cumbersome and error-prone...

There has to be another feasible option...

 

Any suggestions?

:dubbio:
