Hello Fshah

Welcome to the monastery gates and into the beautiful world of Perl.

Given from your sample of data this looks like DB data. Are you sure you want to export them into text files?

Through a very simple script you can export only the required fields and data from your database. Is this something that you would like?

It is very common that all of us we are trying to do something that some times is more complicated, try to describe in simple words how are you data populated into your txt files, is it through a Data Base? If this is the case then you should not be doing something like that. :D

Just describe what you are trying to do, Monks here are very friendly and very very experienced, they/we will try to assist as much as possible.

Looking forward to your update.

Hope this helps.
