Download a large ascii file from the internet. Put it into Excel , and to make it more manageable in size , exclude some of it with given perameters and guidelines. I don't need all the information in the orginal ascii file, but you know how to cut some of the information I want out.
There will be more work available later.

-near the bottom of the page is something called **007 REAL ESTATE PROPERTY TAX ROLL
-download the 2 files. One is a large flat text ascii file. The other is the Tax Roll Layout.
I don't need all these fields. See below as to what I need and what I don't. The resulting information...after it has been reduced with the following guidelines is put in excel. Note..there will be 2 excel files as all the corps., llc's, inc's will be in a separate file. I don't have a very large hard drive (I have an older ibook) so if the files are very large I won't be able to open them.
