We are more than willing to help those that are stuck: but that doesn't mean that we are here to do it all for you! We can't do all the work, you are either getting paid for this, or it's part of your grades and it wouldn't be at all fair for us to do it all for you.

So we need you to do the work, and we will help you when you get stuck. That doesn't mean we will give you a step by step solution you can hand in!
Start by explaining where you are at the moment, and what the next step in the process is. Then tell us what you have tried to get that next step working, and what happened when you did.

Ok thank u dear .... i understand u

You're welcome!

BTW: I know it's an "Indian Thing" to use "dear", but you should avoid it on the internet where you don't know who you are talking to. "Dear" can be seen as patronising and offensive - particularly if you are talking to a female. And remember: on the internet, you have no idea what gender you are addressing, so it's best to avoid using it at all. Doesn't bother me, but it will annoy some people.

Take a look at Using OleDb to Import Text Files (tab, CSV, custom)[^]; the code is in C# but converting it to VB.NET should be easy.

Alternativelly to solution #1 by Richard MacCutchan[^] solution, you can use:
1. CsvHelper[^]
2. A Fast CSV Reader[^]

You can read all lines from text file and split them by any delimiter using Linq. How?
File.ReadAllLines Method (System.IO) | Microsoft Docs[^]
String.Split Method (System) | Microsoft Docs[^]
Anonymous Types (Visual Basic) | Microsoft Docs[^]

VB.NET

Dim filename As String = "file.txt"
Dim lines As String() = File.ReadAllLines(filename)
Dim data = lines _
	.Select(Function(l) New With _
		{ _
			.Id = l.Split(New String(){" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)(0), _
			.Stu_no = l.Split(New String(){" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)(1), _
			.Dt = l.Split(New String(){" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)(2), _
			.Tm = l.Split(New String(){" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)(3) _
		}) _
	.ToList()
'TO DO: load data into columns of flexgrid
For Each d In data
	'column(0) = d.Id

Next d

Note: i have never used MSFlexGrid, so you have to change the code to your needs...
