Perl is usually better for this sort of string handling IME, and Perl is
freely available for Windows and is a very handy thing to have to
pre-process data files.
It'll probably be quicker to hack on in IDL for this immediate problem,
but I'd look into Perl for future jobs, and get the O'Reilly Learning
Perl "Llama book" by Schwarz and Phoenix to go with it.

Pete.
