basically 14 characters then a comma, three characters, then a comma then 10 characters. We are uploading this file to our mainframe and they want the commas removed, so it looks like this
Has anybody got any ideas on how to do this?. Note, the file will always be the same format, but will vary in the number of lines
Hi Gurus,
There is a ASCII file in which a comma is used as a seperator for the amount field when the amount exceed seven digits: e.g. 0001300,000. Now, this comma needs to be removed from this field, after padding leading zeros (to maintain the ASCII positions) e.g. 00001300000.... (1 Reply)

guards
GUARDS(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation GUARDS(1)NAME
guards - select from a list of files guarded by conditions
SYNOPSIS
guards [--prefix=dir] [--path=dir2:dir2:...] [--default=0|1] [-v|--invert-match] [--list|--check] [--config=file] symbol ...
DESCRIPTION
The script reads a configuration file that may contain so-called guards, file names, and comments, and writes those file names that satisfy
all guards to standard output. The script takes a list of symbols as its arguments. Each line in the configuration file is processed
separately. Lines may start with a number of guards. The following guards are defined:
+xxx Include the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is defined.
-xxx Exclude the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is defined.
+!xxx Include the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is not defined.
-!xxx Exclude the file(s) on this line if the symbol xxx is not defined.
- Exclude this file. Used to avoid spurious --check messages.
The guards are processed left to right. The last guard that matches determines if the file is included. If no guard is specified, the
--default setting determines if the file is included.
If no configuration file is specified, the script reads from standard input.
The --check option is used to compare the specification file against the file system. If files are referenced in the specification that do
not exist, or if files are not enlisted in the specification file warnings are printed. The --path option can be used to specify which
directory or directories to scan. Multiple directories are eparated by a colon (":") character. The --prefix option specifies the location
of the files.
