    Hi Derek,

             Thanks for your help.But when my rule file have this

                         RULE NO.    LAYER       TYPE                    VALUE
                            R1A,          POLY,      POLY WIDTH,            0.5
                            R1B,          POLY,      POLY SPACING,        0.25
                            R2A,          ACTIVE,    ACTIVE WIDTH,        0.7
                            R2B,         ACTIVE,    ACTIVE SPACING,     0.3

    when i load the code the output would have on top of it the headers ie (RULE NO.,LAYER...etc). cdr would help me remove these headers right??the output is also found to have results with R1B occuring first then R1A.How can get the output in same order as in the input rule file??
