Extracting data from text file based on configuration set in config file

Hi ,

a:) i have configuration file with pattren
<Range start no>,<Range end no>,<type of records to be extracted from the data file>,<name of the file to store output>

eg:

myfile.confg
9899000000,9899999999,DATA,b.dat
9899000000,9899999999,SMS,a.dat

b:) Stucture of my data file is :
<no>,<type of record>

eg
maindatafile.dat
9899000000,SMS
9899000001,DATA
989901,DATA

Now i want to extract the records from main file
Condition
One check is of range and other will be of Record type defined in configuration file

Output should be like :
File Name : >>>>> b.dat
9899000001,DATA

Similarly seperate files based on range and Record type should be created.

Can anybody help to get this achieved in best possible way...

Thanks in Advance
