Question [SOLVED] awk and substr

Hello All;

I have an input file 'abc.txt' with below text:
Code:
512345977,213458,100021
512345978,213454,100031
512345979,213452,100051
512345980,213455,100061
512345981,213456,100071
512345982,213456,100091
512345983,213457,100041
512345984,213451,100011

I need to paste the first field and the third field in different files depending on the last two digits of first field.

--> If last two digit of first field in between 0 and 15
then the output will be '
Code:
General,<Field1>,123,0,<Field3>,0

in File1.txt
--> If last two digit of first field in between 16 and 25
then the output will be '
Code:
General,<Field1>,123,0,<Field3>,0

in File2.txt
--> If last two digit of first field in between 26 and 40
then the output will be '
Code:
General,<Field1>,123,0,<Field3>,0

in File3.txt
and so on...

Now, I can do it using awk command followed by multiple if loops - but it will take a lot of processing time as the input file is huge with millions of records.

So, how can i do it using 1 single awk command?Smilie

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
