Little function for parsing MSN logs. They are structured in XML, so arnt too hard to read:
Private Sub ParseMSNLogFile(ByVal Filename As String) ''Create our XML Reader Dim XML_Reader As New System.Xml.XmlTextReader(Filename) ''XML Headers XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() ''Read Session Details Dim FirstSessionID = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("FirstSessionID") Dim LastSessionID = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("LastSessionID") ''Create Reading Loop While Not XML_Reader.EOF XML_Reader.Read() ''Get Message Date - Could alternatly get the DateTime attribute Dim MDate As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("Date") ''Get Message Time - Could alternatly get the DateTime attribute Dim MTime As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("Time") ''Get the ID of the current message Dim MSessionID As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("SessionID") XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() ''Get the FriendlyName of the user who send the message Dim FromFriendlyName As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("FriendlyName") XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() ''Get the FriendlyName of the user who recieved the message Dim ToFriendlyName As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("FriendlyName") XML_Reader.Read() XML_Reader.Read() ''Get the style of the message (Fonts & colours) Dim MStyle As String = XML_Reader.GetAttribute("Style") ''Get the messages content Dim MText As String = XML_Reader.ReadString XML_Reader.Read() End While End Sub
That function in effects, does nothing other than read the file. It outputs nothing, and does not handle multi-person conversations.
Check back for an example usage in a program in a bit.
