txt file

[eramgarden]

I have a text file with data like this in it:

F I G U R E 1-1 (see opposite page)

Interior of an idealized cell.

 

F I G U R E 1-2

Atrophy of the brain

 

1. I want to extract the numbers, for example: 1-1 and 1-2.

2. I also want the text below it.

 

The ex-developer used XML like this but i'm not sure how she converted the text file into XML..

 

<legend>

<figureNumber>01_001.jpg</figureNumber>

<legendText>

<B>Figure 1-1 (see opposite page)</B>

Interior of an idealized cell.

</legendText>

</legend>

 

Anyway in .net to convert txt file to XML? I'm open to other ideas on reading text file if possible.
