file reading through shell script

For reading a file through shell script I am using yhe code :

while read line
do
echo $line
done<data.txt

It reads all the line of that file data.txt.
Content of data.txt looks like:

code=y
sql=y
total no of sql files=4
a.sql
b.sql
c.sql
d.sql
cpp=n
c=y
total no of c files=1
a.c
.....
.......

Now, if sql=y and total no of sql files > 0 then want to fetch the only sql file names via shell script.
the script should fetch
a.sql
b.sql
c.sql
d.sql

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename] DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS. The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed. OPTIONS
The following option is supported: -a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it. NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |CSI |Enabled | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
attributes(5) WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script. SunOS 5.10 30 Jan 2004 script(1)
