awk: split a file using a string problems

Hi,

if i use this code

Code:
awk '/String/{n++}{print > f n}' f=file  input

I get "input" splited this way

file1
String
1515
1354
2356

file 2
String
4531
0345
5345

etc

and the files are name like this file1, file2....file10...file125

Is posible to:

1) exclud "String" from the output files and get something like this

file1
1515
1354
2356

file2
4531
0345
5345

2) is posible to name the files like this file001, file002....file010...file125 (i know i could renumber the files, but i would like a more straightforward method)


thanks in advance!
