Example of file content:
ksh: cat result.dat
1.11a,Test result for scenario 1,1 2 3 4,p
1.12b,Test result for scenario 2,incomplete,q
1.13,Test result for scenario 3, 4 5 6,P
...

The number of characters per line varies but the last field is always one character (e.g ,p) and the number of fields per line is always 4


Thanks for assisting
