I need to group the records coming in email column and send the first record of each group into one file and next second record of each group to another file and remaining records also same.

Ex :

b@a.com

a@a.com

c@c.com

 

As per above example first file should have 

a@a.com

b@a.com

c@c.com

second file

a@a.com

b@a.com

@vboppudi Thank you for your quick response.

I currently have a Excel macro enables workbook which reads the data in file then groups the data based on certain criteria, say for example Name and timesheet data. It then creates an individual workbook for each of these groups and names the workbook based on the name and the timesheet value column. It sorts the data first then inserts new line after each group, then copies this data and paste into another workbook, save and closes the file (current workbook), now read the next set of data in the original file and copies and paste the next set of group data and puts in new book and so on utill it reaches end of file with no data and closes the application.

I have been asked to rewrite this job in Talend as the timesheet data we longer receive in excel. The timesheet data comes in a pipe text file. I have been able to create a excel file from the pipe text file.
