i'm really new into ME. i think my question is really simple to answer. i have following content in my clipboard:

 

333333333   Suspended   testdummy1   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
333333333   Suspended   testdummy2   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222
333333333   Active   testdummy3   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
333333333   Active   testdummy4   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
333333333   Suspended   testdummy5   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
333333333   Suspended   testdummy6   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
333333333   Active   testdummy7   Jan-01-01 11:11:11 PDT    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222  

 

now i want to parse this, that following will be left:

 

Suspended   testdummy1    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
Suspended   testdummy2    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
Suspended   testdummy5    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222   
Suspended   testdummy6    Coffe Cup   11111111-22222222222  

 

sorry, but i don't get it to parse single-lines from the clipboard, only from textfiles - but i don't want to save the content as a textfiles first, to get it parsed. :huh:

I would copy it to a text variable and use variable manipulations to chew thru it. This post has a good example of this. If that isn't enough to get you started ask again with more detailed questions. It looks like some of your stuff is a uniform number count so you can just extract X numbers of characters instead of searching for text.
