/bin/ksh

I'm writing it in .sh
I cannot give samples of the file. But let me try to explain it roughly. If you receive your phone bill invoice/statement in the post it could be one - ten pages long showing the invoice total for example, what calls you made etc. This invoice file contains statements in free form (like in notepad) in no specific format and gets printed from there. Each invoice has a certain number of pages, so somewhere in the file it will say Page: 1 or 2 or whatever depending on the Account Number:. The other file is a comma delmited file giving details of each customer, like name, address and whether the invoice gets posted or emailed.
I need to pick up the account number from this txt file, pick up whether it gets posted or emailed and then in the invoice file count the number of pages that gets printed and posted and emailed per customer.
I know this is all confusing but basically I need to get information from a file where the data is not in a specific column or line. There is currently no manual process in place.
