DBF,2002,HDGD,3454
GDF,4564,GRTR,5656

I have to get all the lines which contains 2002 and 4659 at the second position. Please help.

The output file will be like:

Many Thanks,

Or:
Code:

Hi All,

If i have a similar file with no commas to separate the fields, is there any way:

1001DEFG,40000
2002KGRG,3000
2002HDGD,3454
4564GRTR,5656
4659GGTD,10002


to get :

2002KGRG,3000
2002HDGD,3454
4659GGTD,10002

Where i have to get lines based on the first four digits of each line.

Thanks,
D
