I have tried cut, paste options but that is not what I want to use....If I use the following command
awk '{print $1,$3,$6,$4,$5,"FILE1" > "output1.file"}' inputfile I don't get the desired results.....

Input file:

0104100400,C,41.26,43.33,45.39,04/APR/2009,2009,02,MAR,LPF 3: % YTD(Main Exchange),03/APR/2010

Output (desired):
0104100400,41.26,04/APR/2009,43.33,45.39,FILE1


Output (actual with this awk command):
0104100400,C,41.26,43.33,45.39,04/APR/2009,2009,02,MAR,LPF % YTD(Main Exchange),03/APR/2010 FILE1

JOIN(1) 								FSF								   JOIN(1)

NAME
join - join lines of two files on a common field SYNOPSIS
join [OPTION]... FILE1 FILE2 DESCRIPTION
For each pair of input lines with identical join fields, write a line to standard output. The default join field is the first, delimited by whitespace. When FILE1 or FILE2 (not both) is -, read standard input. -a SIDE print unpairable lines coming from file SIDE -e EMPTY replace missing input fields with EMPTY -i, --ignore-case ignore differences in case when comparing fields -j FIELD (obsolescent) equivalent to `-1 FIELD -2 FIELD' -j1 FIELD (obsolescent) equivalent to `-1 FIELD' -j2 FIELD (obsolescent) equivalent to `-2 FIELD' -o FORMAT obey FORMAT while constructing output line -t CHAR use CHAR as input and output field separator -v SIDE like -a SIDE, but suppress joined output lines -1 FIELD join on this FIELD of file 1 -2 FIELD join on this FIELD of file 2 --help display this help and exit --version output version information and exit Unless -t CHAR is given, leading blanks separate fields and are ignored, else fields are separated by CHAR. Any FIELD is a field number counted from 1. FORMAT is one or more comma or blank separated specifications, each being `SIDE.FIELD' or `0'. Default FORMAT outputs the join field, the remaining fields from FILE1, the remaining fields from FILE2, all separated by CHAR. AUTHOR
