I have a tab delimited file that I need to extract data from and into a file with specific field specs. Each field has to be a certain amount of characters. So, the name field (from delimited file) might have only 15 characters but needs to be 25 (in new file) so I need to insert spaces to fill the remaining characters. But each name is going to be a different size so a different amount of spaces needs to used. Does anyone have an idea of how this might be accomplished?Thanks in advance.
