vbscript - How to delete the first row in the .csv file

Question

I need to delete the first row of the CSV file.

In my script I received CSV file as argument and it's first row contains some unwanted data. So I need to remove the first row only before processing it.

Answer 1

I'd do something like this:

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set csv = fso.OpenTextFile(WScript.Arguments(...))

If Not csv.AtEndOfStream Then csv.SkipLine  'skip first row

Do Until csv.AtEndOfStream
  line = csv.ReadLine
  'process read line
Loop

csv.Close

Of course you could just as well do a ReadLine without processing the returned value for skipping the first line, as Ekkehard.Horner suggested, but IMO SkipLine better reflects the semantics.
