Thanks Bipin .. Though My Requirement is quite big.
I mean.. Suppose I have 1500 character data length for say 100 columns file and having length for all columns (as defined earlier example - not fixed) out of which -
say 1200 character are fixed length for say 70 columns and remaining 30 columns are having variable length. Now as mentioned in previous example -
Maximum length of all columns will be 1500
and least will be 1200.
Now I have to separate all these 100 columns with a delimiter and require some automation (Cause I have a situation where I need to separate 900 columns), as defining substring every time doesn't seems feasible.
Thanks in Advance!!
