ASCII files with timestamps [message #42548]

Hi.

Presently learning IDL and need to extract some data from a mostly 3
column ASCII file.

Im essentially using the example from David Fannings webpage:

WHILE (NOT EOF(lun)) DO BEGIN
READF, lun, p, t, h
pressure(count) = p
temperature(count) = t
humidity(count) = h
count = count + 1
ENDWHILE

...
BUT every 720 lines my code has a timestamp which screws up the reading
of the file. I get errors about running the skip_lun command in
windows, claiming it doesnt like the gui and I've tried using
conditional logic to skip the reading of the bad line, or even read it
into a seperate string, but the code keeps choking on the 4 column time
stamp.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
