File handling issue

Hi All,

I am running into an issue. I have a very big file. Wants to split it in smaller chunks. This file has multiple header/ trailers. Also, between each header/trailer there are records. Number of records in each header trailer combination can vary. Also, headers can start with 202XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, same for trailer.
Records start like 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

I want to split file say like
Code:
split -l 99999 filename.

Say last 8 records are like
Code:
1. 202XXXXXXXXXXXXXX-Head
2. 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
3. 202XXXXXXXXXXXXXX-Trail
4. 202XXXXXXXXXXXXXX-Head
5. 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
6. 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
7. 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
8. 1101XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

My script should put till record 3 in first file and records from 4 onwards in the next file as maching trailer for header starting at record 4 is missing.

Can someone help. Please ask all queries.

Regards
