[EmData] Using characters within field as separator

OK, I¹m being dense. Does one record contain:

Czech(1st), Czech(2nd).... Czech(9th), Slovakian(1st)........ Turk(9th)  ?

i.e. each record, or line, contains 45 fields, 9 each of 5 languages?

So what you want to extract is:
Field 1 € Field 2 € Field 3 €...... Field 9 [return]
Field 10 € Field 11....
....
Field 37 € Field 38.....€ Field 45

This should be simple, so I think I¹m missing the point somewhere! Please
describe an actual record.
