    Read the lines in the file, >>> Scanner class could be used
    find the data to be extracted, >>> String class methods here
    extract that data, >>> String class methods here
    write the data to a new file >>> PrintWriter class here
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
