Hi Dmitry the comp.lang.awk newsgroup [http://groups.google.co.uk/group/comp.lang.awk/browse_frm/thread/cbeda85544a742a1/0ecba3a3fbf247d8?hl=en&tvc=1#0ecba3a3fbf247d8 thread] contains all the information necessary for the original poster to get his job done. The example records are probably typical, but you need to try something out and make your own decisions on the format/error handling. The original newsgroup thread actually has more information than you get on some data munging problems as in many cases someone just says "wouldn't it be good if this talked to this"; or "When wasn't this working".
 
Data format information might be [http://dataservice.eea.europa.eu/dataservice/metadetails.asp?id=1029 here]. (Sorry if I seem patronising, it was not meant) --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 17:34, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
