Code:
awk '{rec=$0;gsub(/"/,"",$1);print rec>("ss"$1".sh")}' FS="," filename

1. rec=$0 - save the current record, before modifying it with gsub (global substitution).

2. gsub(/"/,"",$1) - modify the first field ($1), remove the quotes: "40" becomes 40 and so on.

3. Print the previously saved record in a file named ss $1(from the modified current record, 40, not "40") .sh (you have to quote the literal strings - "ss" and ".sh".

4. FS is Field Separator(,).

Good catch ghostdog74 Smilie

I would go with:
Code:
awk  -F'"' '{print>"ss"$2".sh"}' file

But you still will need parenthesis for some awk implementations.

I mean:
Code:
$ nawk -F'"'  '{print>"ss"$2".sh"}' file
nawk: syntax error at source line 1
 context is
         >>> {print>"ss"$2 <<< ".sh"}
nawk: illegal statement at source line 1
$ nawk -F'"' '{print>("ss"$2".sh")}' file
$

awk -F"\"" '{print $0>"ss"$2".sh"}' "file"

Why you have added "\"" in your code?

Why we are using $2 for file name.Actually it is the first field.Then how it is taking?

radoulov, you have missed "$0" after print, i.e print $0 > ......
and dave_nithis, '\' character is used to override the behavior of shell's meta character like double quotes. The character followed by '\' inside the double quotes will be taken as the character itself.

Note:
And awk -F"\"" is equal to awk -F'"' is equal to awk 'BEGIN{FS="\""}' is equal to awk '....' FS="\""

But I have a doubt here, how your script checks whether 40 should go to the "ss40.sh", 46 to the "ss46.sh" and so on. And also the redirection operator is in "overwrite mode", so each time it would clear the file and injects the record afresh, so how here the records are appended correctly? Please correct me, if I am wrong.
