convert text file into html table
I have files with documentation information which i would like to put into a table, but i don't want to do it manually. The files looks something like
SECTION_KEY char (15) NOT NULL ,
TERM char (5) NOT NULL ,
CALL_NUMBER varchar (9) NULL ,
DEPT char (4) NULL ,
COURSE char (4) NULL ,
SEC char (2) NULL ,
TITLE varchar (32) NULL ,
UNITS decimal(8, 2) NULL ,
ACTIVITY1 char (3) NULL ,
I want to have, for example section_key in column 1, char in column 2 and (5) in column 3.
Do i need a program to make this happen, and if so i would like to a code sample for that or something very similar.
