associate array problems in awk
hi,
i have 3 fields in a file and linked them through 2 associative arrays.. the problem is one of the associative array is working while the other is not.. the code part is:
awk ' BEGIN {
FS="|"
rc = getline < "ICX_RULES"

while ( rc == 1 )
{
rule_id=$1
rule_parameter=$2
rule_length=$3
lengthofCallingNumber[rule_length]=rule_parameter
ruleCondition[rule_parameter]=rule_id
print lengthofCallingNumber[10]
print ruleCondition[044]
rc = getline < "ICX_RULES"
}

}

a sample of the file "ICX_RULES" is :
ICX-1|044|13
ICX-2|X1|10

although print lengthofCallingNumber[10] is giving result as: X1
but, print ruleCondition[044] is not yeilding any result.
please help, and please avoid use of if condition as a part of your solution

       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS

       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES

       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk

       BEGIN {
	    while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
		 ...
