When I used Realflow data in POV, I had to convert very large files (consisting of
variables
separated by just spaces) into comma separated files. The only thing I could find was
a
commercial prog called Text Pipe Pro. By setting up various rules, I could get it to
discard
the first 3 lines, then place commas wherever it found a space.

Gergely Vandor (apparently) used HandyFile Find&Replace to do the same thing. Sorry, I
don't
have a link.

All the best,

Andy Cocker
