Hi, I have a input file like this

I am trying to get the output something like this-

Yo You Baby|TH2
sure thing alas|TJ2
No Way Out.|TJA
Jacka nd jill|TJB

Here..TH2,TJ2,TJA and TJB are the distinct first 3 characters from the input.
In the input , lets say fr=substr($0,1,3) and nx=substr($0,4,3).
Basically, i want to check the line if the first 3 character(fr) = the next 3 characters(nx),
then print substr($0,23,20) and the substr($0,1,3)

If they dont match, then print the first occurance of the fr with its associated substr($0,23,20).

I started doing domething like this..
awk 'BEGIN{OFS="|"}{fr=substr($0,1,3);nx=substr($0,4,3); if (fr == nx) print substr($0,23,20),fr}' inputfile
| nawk 'BEGIN{FS="|";OFS="|"}{ sub(/[ \t]*$/, "",$1);print $1,$2}'

But this will missed out to print lines when fr and nx dont match

in my above example - fr doesn't match with fr..

But I would like to get the result as below too...( the first occurance of the fr and its substr )
No Way Out.|TJA
Jacka nd jill|TJB

Help!
