added some data
Hi Don

Appreciate your answer.

I have attached 2 files with more data to be more clear.
File tmp1.txt ( input file )
File tmp2.txt ( desired output) - 7 fields separated by ,

As you can see in the input file the date block change every each 6 lines (fixed number of lines in a group) and the files after column1 (date) are not the same allways. So the pursose is to traspose the colums after date example in date 061218 after date, are 14 fields, then should have 14 lines like in the otput file attached.

But can be cases where the date does not change after 6 lines, can be each 12 like the example on date 061318 in that case the values of the second part lines 7-12 need to be added to the END ond the lines 1-6. To get correctly in the output file.

My script works fine if the input has only fixed number of lines ( 6 for each block ), but if there is case as the date 061318 it does not work.

Hope you can help me to figer out this case.

Appreciate your help.
