Anyone know of a program that will break up a 3 meg file into smaller files. I have just been doing it by hand and it takes way too long. I am trying to get our DNC set up for drip feed but for now I was wondering if there was a program capable of soing this.

Thanks
Chris

That would also be good for trying to get more out of the Mach2 free-trial.

A quick search at download.com netted only 1 result. Never tried it, but it sounds like it should work.

I have an Excel macro that will do what you're looking for. I use it to import large data files into excel, mainly to get around Excel's 32000 line limits in graphs. If you're interested, here's a link:

I can write an Excel routine that will read from your main file and break it up into multiple files of any length. Is that what you want to do -- write the first xxx lines to file1.nc, the next xxx lines to file2.nc, etc.?
