RE: Extract some numeric fields from a string

I would use %SCAN to locate the field... then add the length of the field
name + 1 to the scan result.

Then I'd use atof.

result = atof(p) ;

to pull the data for me. atof() knows what to do, and no hassle.

I may not understand your questions here. Is it that you are just not
sure where the decimal point is in each case? Do you know before time
what the variable names are (L, AS, etc)?


Thank you,
Nancy
