Reading ASCII Data Files in IDL [message #67882] Tue, 08 September 2009 18:39

Hi,

In my IDL program, I read some data from an ASCII file. I want to skip
the first few lines of strings and start from the numerical data
underneath the header. the number of lines in the header differs each
time so I can't use "header = STRARR()".

Does anyone have any solution? By the way, I have seen '
http://www.dfanning.com/tips/ascii_column_data.html ' but the headers
of my files have different lines.

Thank you.
