TABfile = "TAB14.txt"
TABf = open(TABfile, "r")lines = TABf.readline
lines = lines#split(/\n/)
print lines[2]

I think the trouble comes as the data has text delimited by tabs, but the
text is not enclosed by ".

So the view of the data is of more elements than I want.

So what s the code for reading a line delimeted by a tab?

I've tried the obvious... just need that \t in the right place...

Regards & thanks.
