Formatted read of text file [message #9154]

I have a file that contains row and column data like the following:

# I E E_conv E_bl E_saa Resid_RMS
# 0 3.512799e-05 3.512799e-05 0.000000e+00 0.000000e+00 3.512799e-05
1 1.445887e-05 1.445921e-05 0.000000e+00 0.000000e+00 1.445921e-05
2 7.363944e-06 7.364333e-06 0.000000e+00 0.000000e+00 7.364333e-06
.
.
.

So my question is a two-parter.

First, how to I skip the first two lines of this file?

Second, what is proper way to do a formatted read of each of the 6 columns in
the remaining rows? I would like to have each column value put into its
own array so I can then plot/print out each column individually.

My guess is that I have to use and OPENR first to open the file, but that
may not even be the best way to do it.

Much Thanks,
