I am brand new at Euphoria.  I haved programmed in other languages but
have decided I would give EUPHORIA a try.

I am trying to duplicate a program I wrote in QBASIC and my first
question is how do I describe a file where the first record has format 1
and all of the other records have format 2.

Also, the fields within each record have no field separators such as
commas or spaces.

Also, if I don't describe each file how do I break the record into
individual fields after I have read the record.  After glancing thru the
manual there are alot of questions I have.  I don't find any statements
where a long string can be separated.  I am sure itg is there, I just
haven't found it yet or don't understand.

Thanks,
Jim Roberts
