      When you are working with text, a very common need that arises is a way to remove the first row that is contained in a text file. Fortunately, WinAutomation allows you to manipulate text with a lot of “tools”, so this is a problem that can be solved in many different ways. For the purposes of this article, we will implement a solution that uses lists to remove the first row of a text file.

      The specific job, can be altered to do the specific operation for every text file in a folder without the need for the user to manually select every text file.
       

      (The example job is the .waj file that is attached to this article. To import the job and run it in WinAutomation you must choose File -> Import Job from the WinAutomation Console's main menu)
