Modifying a row in a textfile

2009-09-08 Thread Olli Virta 
Hi!

I got a textfile made out of database records. Is there an easy way to
modify rows in that file in case you have to take away some items here
and there from each rows.

Tanks! OV

Modifying a textfile

2009-09-03 Thread Olli Virta 
Hi!

So I got this big textfile. It's full of data from a database. About
150 or
more rows or lines in a textfile.
There's three first rows that belong to the same subject. And then
next
three rows belong to another subject and so on, to the end of the
file.

What I need to do, is put the three rows that goes together and belong
to
certain subject, on a one line in the output textfile. And the next
three
rows again on a one new line. And that goes with the rest of the data
to
the end of the new file.

Can't figure out a working loop structure to handle this.

 Thanks! OV
