Hi,

I have attached a file and i am looking a way to get some data from this file at through a shell script

In the attached file FHEAD demotes the starting of the file.
Every FHEAD can have multiple THEAD. Every THEAD can have multiple TSHIP and TITEM. At the ebd there will be FTAIL which denotes the end of file.

In every THEAD field like the first mentioned in the file there is a data value like "200612048001" and in this last 4 digits i want to extract from the file. Along with this for all the TITEM comming under THEAD i need to extract a value for example "4901990041416" as in the first TITEM of the file.

Finally i want to create a new file with the combinaiton like

4901990041416 8001
4901990044059 8001
4901990543866 8001
4901990544740 8001
4901990545280 8001
4901990545297 8001
4571116520103 8002
4571116520127 8002
.
.
.
.
and so one

Please let me know if we can write any script for it.

Regards
Pulkit

you can use utl_file to read the file line by line ans then just process each line in pl/sql using instr() and substr() to examine the record type and extract the portions you want.

I will really be greatfull if you can give a sample code....

I was thinking if it can be done through Shell Scripting because finally i have to populate some tables depending upon the list (As i mentioned in my query) that will get generated in a saperate file.
