Well, its actually a whole heap of strings, most fields separated by
blanks, and some fields, where there is more than one word, are
encased by quotation marks. The fields inside the quotes have spaces as
well, but we want them to be all one field, if you know what I mean.
Right now we pull out the strings within the quotes, replace all the
spaces with '_', put it back in, remove the quotes and then we can use
the strsplit function to remove the extra white spaces created by
replacing the quotes.
so, in a nutshell, we have:
....PROJECTION-R OTYP DP EXTN img PROC "CM CARDIAC MIBI" .....
and make it to be(through many painful string ops - it is a huge
database file)
PROJECTION-R OTYP DP EXTN img PROC CM_CARDIAC_MIBI ........
and then we have to arrange it in a struct as every second field is the
info we actually need. Odd fields are the descriptors.
Clear as mud?
