Can I use Textpad to split large files?

Post by ejohnson »

Is it possible to split one large file into smaller ones via Textpad? I would like split based on the number of rows or say be able to specify the number of files to be generated. TIA!

Yes, you could make a macro to go down "n" lines, extract section and save, delete those lines, and repeat as needed. Macros wil save and repeat filenames when saving, so this will probably involve some manual intervention.
Hope this was helpful.............good luck,
