Code:
TIMESTAMP=`echo "sales20080226144525.txt" | sed "s/^[^0-9]*\([0-9]*\).*/\1/"`

sed -i "s/^/$TIMESTAMP|/" test.txt

For extracting the timestamp, you can use a simpler method, it all depends on the filename format. For example, for the given filename you can also use:

Code:
TIMESTAMP=`echo "sales20080226144525.txt" | sed "s/[^0-9]*//g"
