This shouldn't be very hard, but I seem to be a little slow today.. can't find my Geritol.
I can do this with a bunch of 'IF''s and 'DO's but I was looking for something prettier. REXX or a PIPE, it doesn't matter. I have input that looks like this: 01 data-a 01 data-b 01 data-c 01 data-d 02 data-a 02 data-b 02 data-c 02 data-d . . 99 data-x . xx data-a is always unique. I want to create a variable that looks something like this: X.01 data-a data-b data-c data-d X.02 data-a data-b data-c data-c or since data-a is unique I could name the variable data-a and have data-b data-c data-d in the var... then I'd have to keep track of all of the names (data-a). Anyone see a super simple way to do this with pretty code?
