I need to come up with some way to make a program (thing) that will look at a text file modify it and save the modified text file to another place.
The text file is on a network drive and is run every hour.

I need to have the program read the text file and delete everything until it reads a word (the heading of part of the report). Then have it save the remaining report to a text file on the desktop of the computer that ran it.

Our programmer just quit and the only language I can write in (sort of) is C++. Any help would be appreciated.
