Firstly, thank you for your quick answer.

My input data is exactly: 

      1234 2321 0      45    1st
      2122 sdsa 0   0  34    
      2313 dsad        43    2nd    
      1232 ffff 0   0        1st 
      3213 sadf     0  34    
      2133 dada 0            2nd

As it is seen, there is different number of spaces between columns. So /\s/ is not working as well as /\s+/ is not working, because some columns have whitespace characters. Also substr function does not work due to same reason. Substr does not see whitespace character and passes to next column. I hope told my problem clearly:)
