Hello there,

As it was said, you really have to define a pattern/structure for your file including the exact field numbers where data is supposed to be modified or at least a group of specific values according to which the script has to search the file and to add what is missing.

Just for giving you a first idea, if the specific values are 441 and 442, then the following KornShell script will do the job

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

RESULT=""

while read LINE
do
    for ITERATOR in $LINE
    do
        if [[ $ITERATOR = "442"  ]]
        then
            RESULT="$RESULT 441 $ITERATOR"
        else
            RESULT="$RESULT $ITERATOR"
        fi
    done
    RESULT="$RESULT\n"
done < $1

print "$RESULT" > $1

So if there are several values, you can specify them in the for loop.

Yet, this works if and only if the delimiters in your file are the default values for IFS that is, \n \t and ' '.

Regards,
Smilie
