In addition to the other questions from post #2 that haven't been answered yet, now that we have seen post #5 please also tell us:
  1. Is a <tab> character supposed to be the field delimiter in your file?
  2. Why is there a <tab> and a <space> between the XX and YX in the header line in the first line of your output?
  3. Why are there a bunch of <space>s instead of a <tab> between the -9 and the 0 in the last line of your output?
  4. Is your input file in the same format as your output file?
  5. Will the YX field always be in the 5th field of your input file? If not how are we supposed to find it?
