in reply to data formatting in excel


You've twisted my arm a little into answering this. So could you clarify some points:

Are you trying to match data in a flat file or in a data structure that you extracted from Excel or as you iterate through an Excel file?

If you are iterating through a file can you show a short example of the code you are using, for context?

Also, if you created the Excel file couldn't you just run your search against the input data instead?

    hi Thanks for the reply. This output is directly the output of the excel file. its the output of the switch/routers. i have written a perl program to extract the output of the commands.
