You could investigate 'Regular Expressions'. They are very powerful.
Although you rarely hear RegEx and 'Easing the pain' in the same

I am in the unfortunately position of having to write a parser for a
flat fixed width ascii file format that uses a cobol style multi-
record format where one of the leading fields defines the actual
record type, which determines how you need to parse the rest of the
string.
Can anyone recommend a java library to help do this sort of data
processing that might ease my pain.
Thanks.
