Z         12345              25                 ABX,PVT LTD   US            123456    200        AUD

 

I want to convert it into below format in text file (.txt) file

 

Output :-

 

X;09141;11/30/2017;12/7/2017;
Y;3B670931;24;XYZ CO LTD;UK;478886;
Y;3B670931;24;XYZ CO LTD;UK;478886;
Y;3B670931;24;XYZ CO LTD;UK;478886;
Z;12345;25;ABX,PVT LTD;US;123456;200;AUD;
Z;12345;25;ABX,PVT LTD;US;123456;200;AUD;
C;6;

 

In bold there is a comma in between the string. I need the value as shown as per the input.

 

Last row is the count of records i.e. 6 is the number of records in above data and character "C" is fixed. i.e. last row would be C;6

 

I need your urgent help here.

 

Waiting for your reply.

 

Thank you.
