The first problem (the missing space) is trivial:


Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{_[$1]=$3 FS $6;next}$NF=$NF FS _[$3]' file1 file2

Quote:
[...]and also parm 4 is reduced to the last 2 digits
Could you be more specific?

Quote:
Is it possible to format the file so each parm starts in a specific column for example

Parm1 in Col1
Parm2 in Col6
Parm3 in Col12
Parm4 in Col22
Parm5 in Col27
Parm6 in Col30
Parm7 in Col65
Provide an example, please.
