if there will only ever be letters in the first column, then read in the line, search the string by spaces, and don't save the first value.

not exact C/C++ code but close.

string temp="";
int index=0;
int len=0;
int values[4];

while(!file.eof)
{
temp = file.readline();
index = temp.find(" ", 1);

for(i=0;i<4;i++)
{
len = file.len(); // get length of file
temp = temp.substr(index, len); // get rid of letters and spaces at start
index = temp.find(" ", 1); // get position of next space
values[i] = ctoi(temp.substr(0, index)); // save data between start of string and nextspace.
}
}


I doubt the code will work, but it should give you a good start on how to tackle the problem.

Best of luck, feel free to write back with problems if you have any.
