Hi,
I have a file having size > 10GB. I want to find the records which are
having the record length > 2500. How do I find that? I dont want to
traverse through the whole file due to the size.

This newsgroup is for questions about Microsoft Access, the databases
program. While you might get lucky and stumble across a UNIX expert here, it
is probably not the most productive place to ask questions about UNIX.

If I have somehow managed to misunderstand, and your question really is
about Microsoft Access, then the answer is that you can not import a file
that big into a JET (MDB) database, as the maximum capacity of a JET
database is 2 GB. Try SQL Server instead, but you'll need the full version,
not MSDE (which also has a 2 GB limit) or Express (which has a 4 GB limit).
