Platform: This C++ program needs to be edited to allow for filtering as described above. The program works great in its current form, I just need to add functionality.
Description:

I would like the following functionality added to the program you wrote for me in October.

I need to give a control file that is only applicable to some of the rows in the source file. For instance I have an invoice file that has a row of "header" information followed by multiple rows of "detail" information.

Vendor Name Address
Item Qty Price
Item Qty Price
Item Qty Price
Vendor Name Address
Item Qty Price
Item Qty Price
Item Qty Price
Item Qty Price

etc

Each row has a field/column that identifies whether it is header or detail.

My thought is that in the control file we can add something to the top that says "Filter 34,6 HEADER" or something to that effect. Then the program will only read lines that match that filter and skip all other lines.
