I've noticed some other little errors, but I need to have a closer look to see whats causing it, maybe an error in the original code. Big 50 this weekend ! Many thanks Keith (Southend)

I guess this step would read the 'new' 'sorted.txt' file and look at the first group of numbers to 'trim'. eg. taking a small sample from our 'sorted.txt' file, a separate file for 14154, 14164, 14174, 14184 etc, would need to be created, although ignore the 5th digit '4' in this example, as this number varies (/, 0,1, 3, 4.), again saved in" C\:" "sorted.txt" 14184 03693 16349 /1102 10031 20031 30081 40083 53028 60042 91750 333 10035 87/06 88/22= 14174 03693 46350 /1204 10031 20031 30068 40071 53021 91650 333 87/08 86/21= 14164 03693 46350 /1105 10033 20033 30058 40061 52017 91550 333 82/08 88/21= 14154 03693 46356 /1304 10034 20034 30053 40055 53014 91450 333 85/08 87/24= 14184 03707 17/02 /1207 10017 20017 30088 40095 51029 60002 733// 91750 333 10027= 14174 03707 47/03 /1006 10018 20018 30080 40087 52032 734// 91650= 14164 03707 47013 /1105 10019 20019 30069 40076 53024 720// 91550 333 88/01= 14154 03707 47105 /1306 10023 20023 30058 40066 53016 732// 91450 333 88/02= So the result would look something like this: File name: "C\:1418.txt" 14184 03693 16349 /1102 10031 20031 30081 40083 53028 60042 91750 333 10035 87/06 88/22= 14184 03707 17/02 /1207 10017 20017 30088 40095 51029 60002 733// 91750 333 10027= "C\:1417.txt" 14174 03693 46350 /1204 10031 20031 30068 40071 53021 91650 333 87/08 86/21= 14174 03707 47/03 /1006 10018 20018 30080 40087 52032 734// 91650= "C\:1416.txt" 14164 03693 46350 /1105 10033 20033 30058 40061 52017 91550 333 82/08 88/21= 14164 03707 47013 /1105 10019 20019 30069 40076 53024 720// 91550 333 88/01= "C\:1415.txt" 14154 03693 46356 /1304 10034 20034 30053 40055 53014 91450 333 85/08 87/24= 14154 03707 47105 /1306 10023 20023 30058 40066 53016 732// 91450 333 88/02= I think I'm beginning to understand how this all hangs together now, the important thing is to take one step at a time, you have to have quite a clear and methodical mind. Therefore, if I'm correct what I'm saying, the second procedure would be new code that would follow on from we already have? So I would need to start with something like: Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click ProcessInput() End Sub ' following Return NewLine End Function Private Const InputFolder As String = "C:\" Private Const InputFile As String = InputFolder & "sorted.txt" Private Const OutputFolder As String = "C:\" ' This is the point where the individual files are created... Private Const OutputFile As String = OutputFolder & "******" I imagine all this can still come within "Sub Button2_Click" ? I hope I'm not being a bit cheeky here ;-) Many thanks Keith (Southend)

Actually, we can combine it in a single step; there's no need to dump it into one file then split it into others. I made a change to the program to do that... it's not the most efficient way, but it involved the least changes to what we've already written. What I did was: 1. Changed the file name so that it's the first four characters of the processed string, plus ".txt". 2. Change the place where we open the StreamWriter from the top of the Sub to inside the loop. 3. Changed the flag on the StreamWriter to append to the file, not overwrite. 4. Moved the StreamWriter's Close call up into the loop also. That's going to give you a separate file name for each different time in the input file. If you need date to be part of the file name also, we'd have to make some more changes, because the function that processes the input line calculates the date, but it doesn't return it right now.

That's about the most accurate description of a "programmer" I've ever heard. :-D > I hope I'm not being a bit cheeky here ;-) Nope, I'm enjoying this. :-) -- Jack

You don't know how much time all this will save me, I can grow old more slowly. There is also the data collection from the 'ogimet' website I haven't mentioned yet, where I have created a form, but not got any further, now that one really will be a challenge :-0 Weather has been a hobby since I was 15 and the internet has opened up so many things. OK, that once again worked straight away, but as usual my spec. was flawed ;-) Nothing major, one minor thing and two nicety's. 1. In the new files, now that we have them all separated I don't need the 1st date/time numbers. before: 14154 88963 42260 80518 11010 21023 39986 40002 57039= 14154 88968 41458 81410 10022 21011 39984 49999 58004 71022= After: 88963 42260 80518 11010 21023 39986 40002 57039= 88968 41458 81410 10022 21011 39984 49999 58004 71022= 2., More of a nicety than a necessity but is it possible to then have the final data in numerical order, so the 1st one would be '01001' (happens to be Jan Mayen(9m)-Norway) and the last probably '98851'(Gen.Santos(15m, Philippines) 3. Again a nicety, some locations report 'nil', so basically there's no data, eg. 14151 14447 NIL= In these instances nothing needs to be outputted, they can be ignored.
