how to strip out the contents of file using grep

Hi,

I am receving a file from remote site which has EDI information for 830, 862 and 997 and I want to extect the data for 997 using grep's or any other methods.

The data look like this:

ISA~000
0000-0001-1000~997
AK1000~m
000~IEA~M

ISA~000
0000-0001-1000~849
000~IEA~M

ISA~000
0000-0001-1000~862
000~IEA~M

What I want to do is just extract the portion starting from ISA containing 997 upto the next line where it has "000~IEA~M" i.e. where it ends and not the info for 849 and 862 and redirect the output to some file. I am sure there must be some easy way to do it. In the file there are no spaces between data. I am just adding the spaces to make it more readable.

TIA,
Inder
