Hi,
My file looks like as mentioned below: 2XYZ987654 Life Assurance 2BDS565656 Personal Pension 2ABC123456 Prudence Bond 2BDS565656 Distribution Bond 2BDS565656 Managed Bond 2ABC123456 FSAVC 1ABC123456 Mr John 1XYZ987654 Mrs Jane 1BDS565656 Miss Gail Could you pls tell me, how to sort this file to get the output as mentioned below: 1ABC123456 Mr John 2ABC123456 FSAVC 2ABC123456 Prudence Bond 1BDS565656 Miss Gail 2BDS565656 Distribution Bond 2BDS565656 Managed Bond 2BDS565656 Personal Pension 1XYZ987654 Mrs Jane 2XYZ987654 Life Assurance that means sorting based upon 2nd to 10th characters(assume it is one field) and then sorting based upon first character/number. This 2nd to 10 th characters is one filed and there is no delimiter between 1st and 2nd character. Pls help me to sort out my file as per requirement ASAP. Thanks in advance. Regards, Prasath |
