Hi
I have some input file which can have any number of records.
The format of the file always is as follows :
Header 1 (only 1 record)
Data related to these header 1 ( Can be thousands of records)
Header 2 (only 1 record)
Data related to these header 2(Can be thousands of records)

Now my requirement is that before feeding these file as input to the next step i would need to delete the header 2(only 1 record) and use these same input file minus these header 2 in the next step.
Also in these header 2 the first 6 characters would always be 666666

Thanks
Ajay
