Hi all,
I have taken onboard all advice, suggestions and wisdom have learnt a bit more about Kixtart. I am still having problems with the SPLIT function although I think I know why and hence this new reply.

The output I obtain from the initial READLINE is as follows:

code:
Administrator             User Account        98
As you can see there is more than one space delimiter between "Administrator" and "User" as well as between "Account" and "98". This seems to affect SPLIT because if I put in an element of $array[3] I get nothing but if I put in the element of $array[22] I get the "98" result. Unfortunately this has other problems further on.

If I put in 6 spaces in the function, e.g.
code:
SPLIT($Line,"      ",)
this also works but again there is the same problem further on.

Again thanks for your help.
Kenno
