Hi all,

I have a text file with this format:

<Text lines>
data1 = fixed format number
data2 = fixed format number
data3 = fixed format number
<Text lines>
data1 = fixed format number
data2 = fixed format number
data3 = fixed format number
<Text lines>
data1 = fixed format number
data2 = fixed format number
data3 = fixed format number
...


I need to extract the data to use them with matlab. The number of text lines between the data sets is not constant, and also the number of data sets in every file is not constant as well.

Any suggestion?
