Dear Franklin,

I am facing a small problem. The above code is working fine...but it is also deleting the lines which is containing the values like 0.01, -0.56, 0.44 in the 4th column...My requirement is to delete only those rows whos 4th column value is 0.


I think I need to do some change in the below pasted line. Code is deleting all the lines with values 0.1, 0.01,0.56 etc...I should delete only those lines with values 0 or 0.00...Please help me.
int($4)==0

Use:
Code:
$4==0

instead of:
Code:
int($4)==0
