LoadInputFile Method

Load mass payment file.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub LoadInputFile(ByVal filename As String)

[C#]
public void LoadInputFile(string filename);

Remarks

The PayPal website has a Mass Payment feature which takes a simple tab-delimited text file. This method will load this file into the RecipientEmail, Amount, CurrencyCode, TransactionId, and Note properties. The format of this file should be:

RecipientEmail [tab] Amount [tab] CurrencyCode [tab] TransactionId [tab] Note [crlf]

The TransactionId and Note properties are optional, but the rest are required. If you're not using these properties, either of the following formats are valid:

RecipientEmail [tab] Amount [tab] CurrencyCode [tab] [tab] [crlf]

RecipientEmail [tab] Amount [tab] CurrencyCode [crlf]

NOTE: This method has a corresponding asynchronous version (LoadInputFileAsync) for use in the WinRT environment.
