I want to read until i get what i want on a line and the just skip over the rest of that line. I want to know if there is a command that will do that

no, you have to write the algorithm yourself. But I don't know just what you mean by "skip over the rest of the line". Can you post an example?

Is this C or C++... perhaps he means something along the line of the [b]ignore[/b] member function for input streams, i.e.:
[code]
ifstream input("file.txt");
...
input.ignore(x,'
'); // <- replace x with the maximum expected line length
[/code]
