Split the output file in multiple files

Hi everyone, 

I need to split the output file into several ones with less than a thousand lines in it.

I've read many discussions around this topic : use of the TILE tool, the CEIL function,

and even tried to build a sample file with the first 1000 records. 

 

all these solutions produce output files with no headers. 

 

Did I forget to specify something? or is it the normal way these solutions work? 

 

thank you

Hi Joe, 

Yes, I had LadArthur's solution and I also managed to split the output with the Select Records tool. 

 

what I learned is that there are many ways to split a file. I like to have choices !! 🙂

 

thank you

Great stuff, I am glad you were able to get what you needed.

 

And yep, choices is always a great thing to have!
