File modify

Hi All

I am getting a file with below pattern -

Code:
00150366 05/08/2015 07:14:32
8000186167+++ 50195281000000000371001010903236
800186167+++ 100209000000000
800000018617+++ 50295281000000000371001010900217================================3u4398482344334=432434
00150367 05/08/2015 07:14:32
80009000001+++ 50195281000000000371001010903236
8000900000186167+++ 50695281000000000371001010953001Y
8000900000186167+++ 50295281000000000371001010900217=================

8000900000186167+++ 50695281000000000371001010953001Y
900000186167+++ 50295281000000000371001010900217=================


I have to sort a file based on the first column for ex - 00150366 in the bold pattern in all the file - remove if there is anything duplicate ... and keep the latest time and date format one .

and then remove the bold three columns and process the file as these columns are just for sorting - Every Bold Pattern will have 3 records inside .

If every record had these 3 columns in front of it then it is simple . But i am not understanding with all these spaces now .

Please let me know in case anyone knows if this is possible or not .

COLRM(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  COLRM(1)

NAME
colrm -- remove columns from a file SYNOPSIS
colrm [start [stop]] DESCRIPTION
The colrm utility removes selected columns from the lines of a file. A column is defined as a single character in a line. Input is read from the standard input. Output is written to the standard output. If only the start column is specified, columns numbered less than the start column will be written. If both start and stop columns are spec- ified, columns numbered less than the start column or greater than the stop column will be written. Column numbering starts with one, not zero. Tab characters increment the column count to the next multiple of eight. Backspace characters decrement the column count by one. ENVIRONMENT
The LANG, LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE environment variables affect the execution of colrm as described in environ(7). EXIT STATUS
The colrm utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO
awk(1), column(1), cut(1), paste(1) HISTORY
The colrm command appeared in 3.0BSD. BSD
August 4, 2004 BSD
