Re: parse for words over 8 characters

My apologies, my question was written incorrectly (translating circuits
misfiring after a long work day...). I meant:

Are those 90 columns contiguous?

If so, you could read it as a flat file consisting of a (long) single
string and process it with Scan into an array (delimited by space).

What I have figured out is real Rube Goldberg. RPG or SQL? Or? What
makes sense to you?
