Order Question.

I need to buy/sell two contracts of Emini. I need to place an attached order with it. In case of buy, the initial sell limit will be 12 ticks for 1st contract, there will be 20ticks stop for two (both) contracts, as soon as 1 contract selling happens i need to go Even Stop on other contract. How can i do it?

I have this link, Attached Orders: Move to Breakeven for Stop

but i do not understand it. Can someone please explain as how to do this?

example: buy two contracts at 2850 , sell 1 at 2852, the stop for the other 1 contract should go to break even. (2850).

That link contains the information you need. Refer to this example which is exactly what you are asking for:
Attached Orders: 2 Targets and Common Stop with Move to Breakeven on First Target

What is happening in the example is that you have two targets, the first at 10 ticks and the second at 20 ticks. The first Target is OCO Group 1, and the second is OCO Group 2. Therefore, when the first target is touched, the Stop's move to Breakeven is triggered, since it is set to do so on OCO Group 1 Triggered.
