Can anyone help me with a program that reads a data file. The data file
reads the following information:

$ELEMENT ID = 800000 IDENTIFIED BY TIME
8
0.000000E+00 -2.310368E-01 -4.983161E-01 3.032406E-02
9
-CONT- -3.499301E-01 6.825016E-01 -9.688503E-01
10
1.000000E-03 -1.482825E+01 3.571170E+00 5.367560E+01
11
....
....
5.000000E-02 -2.275676E+00 4.481227E+00 2.024647E+01
109
-CONT- -2.396308E+02 -3.661783E+01 -4.990652E+01
110
...
(data repeats with element ID increasing)
...
$ELEMENT ID = 800058 IDENTIFIED BY TIME
6388
0.000000E+00 1.008979E-01 -2.118058E-01 8.690994E-02

$ELEMENT ID = 800059 IDENTIFIED BY TIME
6398
etc

The output in Excel reads:

ELEMENT ID = 800000
0.000000E+00 -2.310368E-01 -4.983161E-01 3.032406E-02
9
1.000000E-03 -1.482825E+01 3.571170E+00 5.367560E+01
11
..etc
5.000000E-02 -2.275676E+00 4.481227E+00 2.024647E+01
109
(skip 2 rows once before the next ELEMENT ID = ??)
ELEMENT ID = 800058
0.000000E+00 1.008979E-01 -2.118058E-01 8.690994E-02
6389
1.000000E-03 8.365435E-01 -3.808490E+00 -2.597483E-01
6391
..etc
5.000000E-02 -2.112889E+00 -1.135966E+01 3.044809E-01
6489
(skip 2 rows once before the next ELEMENT ID = ??)
ELEMENT ID = 800059
..etc

Thanks to everyone in advanced.
