macro to store each ine of a text file in an array

if I want to store lines of a text file in an array in a format, can I do so?
I need to read several files in the same format. each file has 1000 lines. all I want is to save the format that I want for each line. So that I can use them for other files. every line starts with some date like 090402(2nd April 09).
Probably it will be a multidimensional array.
Please help me in this macro.

Please help.........................
