How to load a file

Hi,
To load a file, I always do this: load file.txt
But this time, my file looks like what I have pasted below.
‘load’ does not work.
How can I load a file so I can put the data into an array?
Thank you for your help.

The following code snippet will load your data into the matrix data:
fid = fopen('TestFile.txt');
M = textscan(fid,'(%f,%f)');
data = [ M{:,1} M{:,2} ];
fclose(fid);

Thanks. Let me try it out and get back to you.
Thank you for your answer
I did exactly what you did but, i got this error:
Invalid file identifier.
Some of the files look like this:
(-5.740909803957738E-002,5.972384666809710E-001)
I think that is the reason why i am getting errors.
Make sure your file is in the same directory as your m-file, or else prepend the full folder name to your base file name. Here's an example:
% Read in a standard MATLAB gray scale demo image.
folder = fullfile(matlabroot, '\toolbox\images\imdemos');
baseFileName = 'cameraman.tif';
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
% Get the full filename, with path prepended.
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName);
if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
% Didn't find it there. Check the search path for it.
fullFileName = baseFileName; % No path this time.
if ~exist(fullFileName, 'file')
% Still didn't find it. Alert user.
errorMessage = sprintf('Error: %s does not exist.', fullFileName);
uiwait(warndlg(errorMessage));
return;
end
end
Sorry, but comments don't allow for code formatting so it looks kind of messed up. - no indentations, etc.

Textscan is probably your best bet here, assuming you want an n x 2 array of the paired data points. Try:
fid = fopen('file.txt');
data = textscan(fid, '(%f,%f)', 'collectoutput', true);
fclose(fid);
data = data{1};
