I have a pipe delimited file that produces records as follows when
opened in datastation:

 

1       MT6=1

2       EY5=1

3       EY8=08/23/2007

4       G8=0

 

.........and so on

 

When keying these records into the application I only need the
application to key the data to the right of the '=' sign.  What string
extraction command can I use to accomplish this?  

 

Or another solution to my problem would be to parse the file using 2
delimiters.  I would need to open the file with '|' and '=' as a
delimiter.  Then the actual fields I would need to key would be in every
other field which would not be a problem.  I am just not sure if it is
possible to open a file in datastation like this.

 

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
