Hi Tyler Thanks a lot for your help. Its working fine and creating the text files

I have a question though, I am trying to create ProductRef.txt and Products.txt just like you did for other three but its not working as expected. Is it because there are some extra tags within those tags.

How do I create files for them as well.

Thanks
Raghav

Tyler,

This is how I modified your code

Code:
perl -lne 'BEGIN {undef $/}
            while (/<(Portfolio|Family|SubFamily) productCode="(.*?)".*?value="(.*?)".*?

value="(.*?)".*?<\/(Portfolio|Family|SubFamily)>/sg) {
              if ($1 eq "Portfolio") {push @p, "$2|$3|$4"}
              elsif ($1 eq "Family") {push @f, "$2|$3|$4"}
              elsif ($1 eq "SubFamily") {push @sf, "$2|$3|$4"}
              elsif ($1 eq "ProductRefs") {push @pr, "$2|$3|$4|$4|$5|$6|$7|$8|$9|$10"}
              
            }
           END {if (@p)  {open(F, ">portfolio.txt"); foreach(@p) {print F $_} close(F)}
                if (@f)  {open(F, ">family.txt"); foreach(@f) {print F $_} close(F)}
                if (@sf) {open(F, ">subfamily.txt"); foreach(@sf) {print F $_} close(F)}
                if (@pr) {open(F, ">ProductRefs.txt"); foreach(@pr) {print F $_} close(F)}
           }
           ' CPC.xml
