Thanks ctsgnb and birei!
I will try both your solutions.
Btw, I'm not really understand what these codes doing (in birei's post):
Code:
# File 1.                                                                                                                                                                     
        if ( /^DTM/ ) {                                                                                                                                                               
            s/(DTM\+\d*:)\d{12}/$1  . ("'" x 12)/eg;                                                                                                                                   
        # File 2.                                                                                                                                                                     
        } elsif ( /^(?:EXIT|DISC)/ ) {                                                                                                                                                
            s/^(EXIT|DISC)\d{8}/$1 . ("'" x 8)/e;

What is 'eg' and 'e'?
And what 's/' means?
Notice that there is many 'DTM' in the 1-line file, is the above code can cater for all the 'DTM' inside?
Regards.
