Complex Flat File

Hi ,
I am using complex Flat file for reading multiple records types within a same file .

The file is as follows

GHIJKLABCD20070918ZX
MNOPQREFGHI20070917JAHALHALJJKAHKHAKHA
------------------------------

Inabove file , the fields are as follows
1 2 3 4
GHIJKL ABCD 20070918 ZX ----- ( FIRST LINE WITH 4 FIELDS NO

SEPARATOR )
1 2 3 4 5 6
MNOPQR EFGH 20070917 JAHAL HALJJKAH KHAKHA ---- ( 2ND LINE WITH 6 fields with no separator )

Like that there are many records with different metadata.For reading this file I am using CFF parallel job .
I gave recordid constraint as GHIJKL for first record and
MNOPQ for second record.
I gave metadata for each record properly.I am directing each record to a sequential file .But in the o/p I am able to view data for only 1st recordid.Can anyone suggest the exact procedure ?

Can I direct all the records in the file with same recordid ( like MNOPQR ) to one sequential file using CFF ?

Why do you believe asking the same question in a different thread will get a different answer?
