Crystallographic Information Framework Files

Has anyone dealt with these file types before?
Looks a bit like a plain text coded file - I am wanting to read the contents and put it into a collection, the standard File Utility can read the data but comes out as a single data item - not sure then how to convert to a collection.
If anyone has an insight that would be great.

Hi @jgregor4

Which action are you using on the Utility - File Management VBO? Have you tried the Read Lines from File action?

Cheers,

Eric
