String operation in csh AIX 4.3.2.0
Hi to everybody
i stuck on a simple thing i had a string and i want cut it , i try already few thing with the cut command but does not the way it should.
The script is in csh and running on AIX 4.3.2.0

here are few samples how the string can look like

Code:
FT71;1;1;1;;;1;31.01.2017 11:12:24;0
FT71;1;1;1;2;;1;31.01.2017 11:12:24;0
FT71;1;1;1;2;2;1;31.01.2017 11:12:24;0

The string should be cut always after the 7. delimiter even if there are no number between two delimiters like in sample 1 and 2 . That maybe the reason it doesnot works with the cut command.

Thanks a lot in advance

CUT(1)									FSF								    CUT(1)

NAME

       cut - remove sections from each line of files

SYNOPSIS

       cut [OPTION]... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       Print selected parts of lines from each FILE to standard output.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       -b, --bytes=LIST
	      output only these bytes

       -c, --characters=LIST
	      output only these characters

       -d, --delimiter=DELIM
	      use DELIM instead of TAB for field delimiter

       -f, --fields=LIST
	      output only these fields;  also print any line that contains no delimiter character, unless the -s option is specified

       -n     with -b: don't split multibyte characters

       -s, --only-delimited
	      do not print lines not containing delimiters

       --output-delimiter=STRING
	      use STRING as the output delimiter the default is to use the input delimiter

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       Use one, and only one of -b, -c or -f.  Each LIST is made up of one range, or many ranges separated by commas.  Each range is one of:

       N      N'th byte, character or field, counted from 1

       N-     from N'th byte, character or field, to end of line

       N-M    from N'th to M'th (included) byte, character or field

       -M     from first to M'th (included) byte, character or field

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.
