Thank you very much corona and rdrtx1

Brilliant this is working Smilie

Can we make it conditional ? as I wanted to increment ( $2 ) value based on third column value in the file.

For example if 3rd column's value change then 2nd column value should reset to 1 again and then repeat after each 5k records and so on?

Thanks in advance
