I have been asked to do some research on having excel read a text file and
from that text file extract pieces of data based on a condition and then
populate an excel sheet for anaylsis. The programmers have a text file
created as in the example and it is set up is such a manner as the required
information is in two seperate lines while the condition is in another.
example
date name number seller
amount
item
item number
sale price
value
The items being requested are:
From line 1 -- "date", "seller"
From line 2 -- "amount"
based on the "sale price" which is on line 5 of the text file
Does any one have any ideas or point me in the general direction on how I
can populate excel so that sales managers can evaluate the informtion in
excel?
The managers would like to see the excel sheet look like this
Column A Column B Column C
Date Seller Amount
Thanks and as always any assistance is appreciated.
