Hi
I have a technical question.
I have a text file with data for several clients sorted by client no. each client no is preceded with "@" and followed by several lines of data for that client.
I want to read the text file and break it up into multiple files ie a file for each client with the client no as part of the file.
Thanks in advance
TK

Hi TK,
I red your message, let me clarify one thing, that you want to create indexed file, or line seqential file, If you want to create Indexed file then read that text file where ever you find the @ then open one indexed file with name of Claint No, and write the remaing data of that claint into that indexed file. where every you find another claint then close this indexed file and again open another indexed file based on the new claint no.
I hope this will solve your problem. If you find any difficult let me inform.

It makes a big difference what you mean by "several".
Create one file for each client. Open each file as output. Read through your input file sequentially. If client number = 1, write to output file 1. if client number = 2, write to output file 2, etc.
Close all files when you are done.

Thanks for the replies. I have a few thousand clients and need to create a file for each client. I need code or script where I can use a variable file name.
Thanks again
