KSH Script Q.
Hi all,

Can anyone help me out with a simple awk routine (or alternative) that will
read in and collate all the $1 values into a single line?

Input;
4134,Bloggs,Joe,802437394
4189,Bloggs,Joe,802437394
3234,Soap,Joe,824324999
4012,Bloggs,Joe,802437394
3425,Soap,Joe,824324999
1232,Blunt,James,803423421

Output;
Bloggs,Joe,802437394,4134,4189,4012
Soap,Joe,824324999,3234,3425
