I have a dataset that can have various number of lines in it. How can I split it into two new datasets with half in each ?

Example:

MOTHER.DATASET:
1
2
3
4
5
6

Output should look like this:

CHILD.DATASET1:
1
2
3

CHILD.DATASET2:
4
5
6

Have searched the forum(s) and found nothing really. Any thoughts ?

If the dataset is on a tape, just get a pair of sissors.

A data set on disk would be more difficult. Laughing
