Code:
awk -F"," '{

                _[$1]=1
                print $0
        }
}' a > t1
join -t"," -11 -25 t1 b
thank you for the response so far. The field will be 9 digit. So it will vary on how many zero are place. Trying to make it look like this:

000000000
000000100
000000090
000001100
000012000

The last 2 digit represent the cents. Example 5.50 will be 000000550
