Splitting a file based on the records in another file

All,

We receive a file with a large no of records (records can vary) and we have to split it into two files based on another file. e.g.

File1:

UHDR 2008112
"25187","00000022","00",21-APR-1991,"" ,"D",-000000519,+0000000000,"C", ,+000000000,+000000000,000000000,"2","" ,21-APR-1991
"8Y3H4","0000004H","00",16-APR-1992,"" ,"H",-001621119,+0000000000,"C", ,+000000000,+000000000,000000000,"2","" ,21-APR-1991
"95Y8U","02100971","00",03-MAR-1991,"" ,"H",-000004499,+0000000000,"" , ,+000000000,+000000000,000000000,"2","US",21-APR-1991
"24567","02100973","00",26-SEP-1991,"" ,"H",-000000362,+0000000000,"" , ,+000000000,+000000000,000000000,"2","US",21-APR-1991

If the first 5 characters of file 2 matched with the chars 2-6 in file1, it should separate those records and put them into another file and rest of the records should be copied into a second file.

I tried cut command but as the file1 is quite large, it was taking a lot of time to put the values into a variable and then compare it.

Is there a way which can do the above task quite fast.

Please help as it is needed urgently.

Thanks in anticipation.
