Folks,
Hi,
I have a data like this:

DESCRIPTION=Unknown Point Feature
ELEVATION=1.379
14.2899550000,41.1586500000,1.379

DESCRIPTION=Unknown Point Feature
ELEVATION=-1.635
14.2819110000,41.1528830000,-1.635

DESCRIPTION=Unknown Point Feature
ELEVATION=1.379
14.2899550000,41.1586500000,1.379

DESCRIPTION=Unknown Point Feature
ELEVATION=-1.635
14.2819110000,41.1528830000,-1.635

DESCRIPTION=Unknown Point Feature
ELEVATION=-0.805
14.2815830000,41.1521640000,-0.805

......
and i just need to extract the lines like:

14.2899550000,41.1586500000,1.379
14.2819110000,41.1528830000,-1.635
...

i did somethings like this:
file=dialog_pickfile()
data = (read_ascii(file,delim="|")).field1[0:2,*]

but the result is bad:
NaN NaN 14.2900

Can someone please give me some hints?
Thanks for any kind of help in advance,
Cheers,
Dave
