I read in an Excel file and sent it to an output file. I then read in the output file into a multidimensional array.

I know how to access specific elements. That's not the problem. For exemple here is a snippet from the output file:

ID NAME 1 2 M D S
M001 C0001 215 221 401 402 0
M001 C0002 214 217 401 402 0
M001 C0003 189 209 401 402 0
M001 C0004 0 0 401 402 0
M001 C0005 0 0 401 402 0
M002 C0043 149 152 401 402 1
M002 C0044 243 243 401 402 1
M002 C0045 228 244 401 402 1
M002 C0046 116 119 401 402 1
M002 C0047 118 118 401 402 1

Ok, what I need to to print all the alleles for fish M002 and then a line and then for M002

Basically, theoutput needs to be
M001
215 221 214 217 189 209 0 0 0 0

M002
149 152 243 243 228 244 116 119 118 118
Any help would be appreciated?
