Thanks for the reply.

The data file is a large data file from the Federal government.

I would like to read the data using stat software packages.

The lines end with \r\n .

Field 4 is a text field. It can have a \n character embedded in it. Stat software package tends to incorrectly split a record with a \n character into two records. Commas are a legitimate part of field 4 (so I should not have had it removed in the sample output). Field 4 is all caps.

I have tried things like

Code:
awk -F"|" '{ print $1f"|"$4F }' < patienttest2.txt | sed 's/,/comma/g' | sed 's/|/,/' | sed 's/;/,/g' | awk -F , '{for (i=2;i<=NF;i++) if ($i>=0) print $1 FS $i}' | sed 's/co
mma/,/g' |

extracting field 1 (the id variable) and field 4 (the value of intereset) from a file

changing "," to "comma" because lowercase letters are not in the datafile

change the pipe to a comma.

the 2nd awk statement was to reshape fields 1 and 4 so that there a line with the id variable for each field 4.

the last sed is to swap "comma" out for "," .

Thanks!
