Moving Part of a field to another field using AWK
Hi there,
I have a comma seperated file with nine fields

the fields are

rerate: "numberTX",field2,field3,field4,field5.....


I want to do this to the file

reate: "field5TX",field2,field3,field4,field5


I know I can do this using AWK, but the thing giving me fits is that I need to keep the first part of thr first field there. Anyone got any ideas how I would do this ????
