Thank you vry much for all your advices, I am now working on ta script to use this method and I will report back just now to let you know the result. I want to plot the data once I have read it. and since I want to plot in different colors, for each block so I will direct my output to a gnuplot script, I hope that works.
I will let you know the result!
Thank you

Good afternoon,
Somehow I am not able to get this to do what I want to do.
I am trying to do is to read the value after #data, that should be the number of data lines in that block, so I should be able to read that number of lines under that header and sent that to a file which I will then call in gnuplot and plot that particular data.
The Final output is a plot of column 1 vs column 7 all the blocks on the same plot. But since the column 1 is not in a continuous sequence, I need to plot each block of data separately and overplot on the same plot.
Here is the intedend output
Either the data for each block is sent to a seperate file like this
file 1
file 2
file 3
so that I can then use gnuplot to plot column 1 vs colomn 7 for each file on the same plot.
If instead of sending the data to a file I can send it directly to gnuplot and produce one plot with lines for each block of data then that would be the perfect result I am looking for.
For example I have put this line into a script
I expected that data.out should contain the data but without the headers for each block and thats not what is happening.
Thank you all the the time and assistance.... its much appreciated.
Regards
