Remove multiple lines from a particular string to particular string

Hi,

I have a file containing the DDLs of tables in a schema. From that I need to remove all the lines from a starting string till a specific string. Here is an example.
File1.txt
-------------
Code:
  CREATE TABLE "SCHEMA1"."LKP11_TBL_USERS"
   (    "ID" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "USER_ID" VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "USER_NAME" VARCHAR2(50),
    "TEAM" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "ROLE" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "TITLE" VARCHAR2(50),
    "TEAM_MANAGER" VARCHAR2(50),
    "COMPUTER_NAME" VARCHAR2(50),
     CONSTRAINT "PK_LKP11" PRIMARY KEY ("ID")
  USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 COMPUTE STATISTICS
  STORAGE(INITIAL 81920 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA101"  ENABLE,
     CONSTRAINT "UQ_LKP11_USER_ID" UNIQUE ("USER_ID")
  USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 COMPUTE STATISTICS
  STORAGE(INITIAL 81920 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA101"  ENABLE
   ) SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE
  PCTFREE 10 PCTUSED 40 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 NOCOMPRESS LOGGING
  STORAGE(INITIAL 81920 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"

  CREATE TABLE "SCHEMA1"."LKP07_CHECK_PAYMENT_PLAN"
   (    "PAYMENT_PLAN" VARCHAR2(3),
    "PMS_FLAG" VARCHAR2(1),
     CONSTRAINT "PK_PAYMENT_PLAN" PRIMARY KEY ("PAYMENT_PLAN")
  USING INDEX PCTFREE 10 INITRANS 2 MAXTRANS 255 COMPUTE STATISTICS
  STORAGE(INITIAL 81920 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"  ENABLE
   ) SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE
  PCTFREE 10 PCTUSED 40 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 NOCOMPRESS LOGGING
  STORAGE(INITIAL 81920 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"

------------------------

In the above file I am searching for "USING INDEX" and it will remove all the lines starting from the line having "USING INDEX" till it founds ")"

The o/p should be:
-------------------------------------
Code:
  CREATE TABLE "SCHEMA1"."LKP11_TBL_USERS"
   (    "ID" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "USER_ID" VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "USER_NAME" VARCHAR2(50),
    "TEAM" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "ROLE" NUMBER(8,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
    "TITLE" VARCHAR2(50),
    "TEAM_MANAGER" VARCHAR2(50),
    "COMPUTER_NAME" VARCHAR2(50),
     CONSTRAINT "PK_LKP11" PRIMARY KEY ("ID")
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA101"  ENABLE,
     CONSTRAINT "UQ_LKP11_USER_ID" UNIQUE ("USER_ID")
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA101"  ENABLE
   ) SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE

FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"

  CREATE TABLE "SCHEMA1"."LKP07_CHECK_PAYMENT_PLAN"
   (    "PAYMENT_PLAN" VARCHAR2(3),
    "PMS_FLAG" VARCHAR2(1),
     CONSTRAINT "PK_PAYMENT_PLAN" PRIMARY KEY ("PAYMENT_PLAN")
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"  ENABLE
   ) SEGMENT CREATION IMMEDIATE

  PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT FLASH_CACHE DE
FAULT CELL_FLASH_CACHE DEFAULT)
  TABLESPACE "TBSSCHEMA102"

Thanks in advance.
