So this may be wishful thinking, but I would be kicking myself later if I didn't ask. Is there a function in perl where you give
the function  exact line numbers and it would only read the data in the range of lines you gave it? My other alternative would be
using a counter to find a start line and an end line in a file. Doable but painful. Let me know if there is any hope . . . 


Thanks in advance
