100,000 lines? $ tail -100000 <filename> :) heheh...I couldn't resist.
I'm sure there's a way....find a good perl programmer or a UNIX admin close by. They'll probably be your best source of information. -----Original Message----- From: Charles Nahm [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 21, 2002 4:15 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Reading only part of a really big text file... If I have a 270 MB log file, can I use CF to split it up into say ten 27 MB files or some such thing? Or maybe into like 100,000 lines per file or some such thing. I'm currently finding it impossible to view the contents of this file due to the size. Purchased a file splitting utility, but it was unable to do the task. Have not been able to load the file in Notepad or Word. I'm hoping there might be a CF way around this.
