Thanks for your answers, last solution is perfect, I need some more assistance, file format is as follows:

Code:

ADMDN13EX84447619,"HUMMER H3 SUV, LEATHER SEAT",XAWBG020209,m,Kuwaiti,M,13/05/1969,39,Block Building

I need XAWBG020209 from this line, I can't use awk because sometimes XA string is in the third column, my part numbers are starting with XA or XG, I want to take these part numbers then lookup in another file acc.csv which contains the description of these parts, I want to match part number extracted from this line with that part number and show the description, I wanted to do it by myself but since 3 hours I'm not able to figure out anything.

Second file is properly formatted, few lines from that file are as follows:

Code:

XG96470024,04-05OP WHEEL (ALLOY)
XG96545706,05OP SPOILER A-RR# HB
XG96635210,EPICA SPOILER KIT-V250
XG96635230,EPICA BODY KIT-V250
XG96654234,"AVEO TIP A-EXHAUST,TAIL - T -2"
XG96664463,07EP BLUETOOTH
XG96806104,07EP REAR SPOILER
XG96806220,07EP BODY KIT
XG96816783,07EP EXHAUST TIP
XGCHCAP71,CHROME PACKAGE CAPRICE 08

Your help would be appreciated.

protocols

PROTOCOLS(5)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						      PROTOCOLS(5)

NAME

       protocols - protocols definition file

DESCRIPTION

       This  file  is a plain ASCII file, describing the various DARPA internet protocols that are available from the TCP/IP subsystem.  It should
       be consulted instead of using the numbers in the ARPA include files, or, even worse, just guessing them.  These numbers will occur  in  the
       protocol field of any IP header.

       Keep this file untouched since changes would result in incorrect IP packages.  Protocol numbers and names are specified by the IANA (Inter-
       net Assigned Numbers Authority).

       Each line is of the following format:

	      protocol number aliases ...

       where the fields are delimited by spaces or tabs.  Empty lines are ignored.  If a line contains a hash mark (#), the hash mark and the part
       of the line following it are ignored.

       The field descriptions are:

       protocol
	      the native name for the protocol.  For example ip, tcp, or udp.

       number the official number for this protocol as it will appear within the IP header.

       aliases
	      optional aliases for the protocol.

       This file might be distributed over a network using a network-wide naming service like Yellow Pages/NIS or BIND/Hesiod.

FILES

       /etc/protocols
	      The protocols definition file.
