open the file, create a new file, read each line of the source file, check if it starts with subnet, if not write it to the new file. When you are done, close both files, delete the source file (if you are sure your script has made the right changes), then rename the output file to the source.
Some functions you may want to look up which will be of help open while next oh, and read up on regexs so you can construct a regex to check for subnet. If you need help with your code, post again and I'm sure we will assist...
