Splitting large file into small files

Hi,

I need to split a large file into small files based on a string.

At different palces in the large I have the string ^Job.
I need to split the file into different files starting from ^Job to the last character before the next ^Job.
Also all the small files should be automatically named.

Please suggest.

Thanks,
Chandra
