How to read a portion of file?

I have a text file which contains 10 colomns, tab seperated floating numbers. Colomn 3 is the data for Length. it is formatted in ascending order. I hope to select only the portion of file within a certain length range. The code attached reads the whole file, stores them in an array and selects the portion in the range. Is there a way to read from file only the portions in range, not the whole file. Thanks.
WL_Low =1330; % Length range
WL_High = 1500;
fid = fopen('test.txt');%read in file
data = fscanf(fid,'%f',[10 inf]);% store to temporary data file
fclose(fid);
DT = data(:,data(3,:)>WL_Low & data(3,:)<WL_High)'; % select data in this range for processing.

Not nearly as efficiently as the above solution, no.
To do it on the fly while reading means processing each record one-at-a-time a much less efficient operation than operating on the file as a whole.
About the only exception to this could be if the file is so large as to cause memory problems or in that the file i/o is excessive. But, in the latter, it'll be even slower and the alternative there would be to go to stream instead of formatted file i/o.

Sure, w/ a little logic. You can inquire for the file the size via dir() and then set the size of the number of elements to read dynamically if above some threshold. The [M,N] values can be variables; they need not be constants.
