I don't understand. Are you saying that you have ~50 sections in a file with each section looking like what you posted and you just want the last line of dashes to be removed from each section?

Is there something else at the start of the file or between sections that is supposed to be ignored?

Please show us more input data and show us what you want the output to be. (And, please use CODE tags.)
