Hi,

Could you please assist me with the 'C' code for the following :-

I have a file called Test.txt.


I) Test.txt
---------

A,BC,DE,HI,00,11
A,DE,HI,JK,23,24
A,XX,YY,YU,40,95
B,CD,EF,GH,11,22
B,JJ,KK,JU,45,89
C,DE,FG,HI,22,33
C,EF,GH,IJ,77,88
D,EF,GH,IJ,33,44
D,FG,HI,JK,44,55


Need to read the first column of the file and create files such that for each change in the first column, a new file is created with the filename as first column.ref.

That is for above file, 4 Files are created as each time the first column changes, a new file is created. The 4 files generated are as follows:-


II)

1) A.ref
------

BC,DE,HI,00,11
DE,HI,JK,23,24
XX,YY,YU,40,95


2) B.ref
------

CD,EF,GH,11,22
JJ,KK,JU,45,89


3) C.ref
------

DE,FG,HI,22,33
EF,GH,IJ,77,88


4) D.ref
------

EF,GH,IJ,33,44
FG,HI,JK,44,55
