Thanks!!!It worked like a charm.I have one more query,say i have a requirement like the above code should be
move to diffent files only if the count of the file is more than 10.Say in the above example,it consist of 14 lines.
This should be moved logically using the data in the fisrt coloumn.
File 1:

Code:
102100|LName|Gender|Company|Branch|Bday|Salary|Age
102100|bbbb|male|cccc|dddd|19900814|15000|20|
102101|asdg|male|gggg|ksgu|19911216|||
102102|bdbm|male|kkkk|acke|19931018||23|
102102|kfjg|male|kkkc|gkgg|19921213|14000|24|
102102|bprb|male|cccc|pppp||15000|20|

File 2
Code:
102103|kfjg|male|kkkc|gkgg|19921213|14000|24|
102103|bprb|male|cccc|pppp||15000|20|
102103|kfjg|male|kkkc|gkgg|19921213|14000|24|
102103|bprb|male|cccc|pppp||15000|20|

102103|kfjg|male|kkkc|gkgg|19921213|14000|24|
102103|bprb|male|cccc|pppp||15000|20|

Note : In file 1,i cannot put 4 records of 102103 bcos my data(102103) will be in 2(file 1 and file2) files.
