Hi Scrutinizer,

I did not understand your question completely. Which one are you referring to? The file might have lines containinig only NA or na. I do not need to add anything at the end of these lines. Because, there will be no files with the naem NA.txt or na.txt

Hence I need to exclude those lines. Was your question for this?

Regards
Angshuman
