extract data in a csv file based on a certain field.
I have a csv file that I need to extract some data from depending on another field after reading info from another text file.

The text file would say have 592560 in it.

The csv file may have some data like so

Code:
Field 1       Field2  Field3   Field4   Field5     Field6

20009756   1        2         1          1           592560

The information will always be in the same position.

If the data in the text file is on line 6 then output the data in line 2 to another text file. There would be many rows and the correct line 2 would need to be copied. There could be many entires in that text file and could reside in the csv file and would need to be added to the output file.
