Thanks so much for your reply and explanation. My style and confusing code stems from the fact that I started teaching myself Perl a few months ago.

Your code works great. The only problem I have is that it doesn't grab those N347 and N265 codes that are in between the lines. That is why I wanted to print the whole of NAME...ADJ TO TOTALS because it included those codes. Is there a way to include grabbing those N codes as part of the @lines array? I tried to grep those codes and add them to the print statements but they don't line up correctly (the lines they correspond to are directly above the code lines). That is why I thought of using the substring in order to test for the 0.00 condition and grab all the information. Do you think I need to add another if conditional or modify the @lines array to grab those N codes in the right spot?
