Hello,

I know this is off topic however I hope someone can help.

I have a flat file that I need to import into a database.  The first fiel=
d of=20
the file is a part number which cannot exceed more than 8 characters.

Does anyone know how I can use  sed to count the characters in the first =
field=20
and if there are more than 8 print out a list?

Thank you.

Matt=20
