split and rename the file

Hi All,

I have a requirement .I want to split a file and the split files should have certain names.

Currently when i use the split command
Code:
split -1000 testdata testdata_

Then the output is
Code:
testdata_aa
testdata_bb
testdata_cc

and so on.

But i want the output as
Code:
testdata1.snd
testdata2.snd
testdata3.snd

etc..can we achieve this..Since the number of output files are dynamic, i am not sure how to do this.
