Well there would be a problem reading the text documents as a grid since they are just characters and you would need to know the exact character count or unique string to id that portation of the file you wish to parse from the TXT doc.

I assume you have a program that creates these reports and I asume it was programmed to use the same values that rep the data, so my statement above saying that why compair all wrong data together is because if the program things that the Beginning AR is 1500 and in the report it says 1500 then this program you wish to create is going to compair 1500 to 1500 and it will check just fine, I suppose I do not understand you completely, so if you could try to explain it more that would be nice.
