I have requirement, that i get one big chunk of text file. This text file
will have has information, that on finding "****End of Information****", i
have to split them individual text file with our naming standard (unique id)
and create them designated folder.

This requirement should be created as a batch job and preferrably this job
should monitor the folder where one big chunk of text file lands and process
them immediately.

\\Textfile\IN folder => one big chunk text file comes here by different
source

\\Textfile\Output\yyyyddmm folder => i need to process (split) the text file
coming "IN" folder to different text files based on "End of Information"
delimiter.

I need to achieve this using dot net preferrably using Csharp. Pl. note that
i have recently started learning cSharp but has almost 6 years experience of
using  Visual Basic & COM + etc.

Pl. throw any thoughts that you may want to share.

To tell you how the text file will look
unique ID : 999
Text blah blah blah blah......
something here..
some information ...
"****End of Information****"
unique ID : 999
Text blah blah blah blah......
something here..
some information ...
"****End of Information****"
unique ID : 999
Text blah blah blah blah......
something here..
some information ...
"****End of Information****"

Thanks,
Krish

Read it in to a String
.Split() the string on ***eof*** into an array.
Loop the array and do your individual work.
