C fscanf- how to skip lines

[odin607]

I'm making a little program to track what items I sell/buy how much of them how much it was to buy it and when I bought it. This program is only C (or trying to keep it that way)

Theres a few files that im writing to to display all that information, but that's for another time.

This post is to ask how to read from one of the files (it brings in "All Sessions" data)

the file looks like this

          Last Session
         --------------
Buy:                       111111
Sell:                      222222
=================================
Net:                       111111
 
 
 
          All Sessions
         --------------
Buy:                       222222
Sell:                      444444
=================================
Net:                       222222

(cant seem to get the "Last Session" but it's suppose to be 10 spaces over)

So I need to know how I can skip the first 10 lines to bring in the 3 totals (buy sell and net)

The format never changes.

Hi,
If you want to skip 10 lines always then what u can do is
1)Open the file
2)use fgets to read a line
3)Loop using fgets tiil u read 10 lines
4)Then u can use fscanf to start processing from 11th line
