urgent<parsing data from a excel file>
Hi all,
I wud like to get ur assistance in retrieving lines containing l1.My excel dataset contains around 8000 lines.I converted it into a text tab delimiter file and got the lines containing l1,My output is a list of lines containing l1 saved in a outfile.Some of d lines from my outfile s shown below;

Code:
"NM_001354","chr10","-",5021965,5050207,"Y","LINE,LTR,","L1,MaLR,","+,-,","5039541,5050000,","5039749,5050345,","5'UTR,5'UTR,"

You may notice some lines containing only "L1," and some lines containing "L1,MaLR," and so on.I would like to retrieve the lines containing only "L1,"into a separate outfile and the other lines into another outfile.I need a regular expression for matching this.

Thank you,

Regards,
Sayee.
