Hi and thank for the reply,

But I'm not clear.  For clarification, the data file is large, hundreds of thousands of rows.  101 rows are recorded every minute, and 115 rows are recorded every 15 minutes.

I tried it with just two lines and the D1 command seems to drop everything in a single column.  D2 errors our with "??? Error using ==> load
Number of columns on line 1 of ASCII file N:\2008\fiberOpticsAirshed\ml_scripts\finalScripts\data.txt
must be the same as previous lines.", which is my continued problem.  

Am I misunderstanding your solution?

Thanks again,
AMK
