I have written the following it is pretty sloppy but I don't see any reason why I should be losing 54 records from a 3.5 million line file after using it.
What I am doing:
I have a 3.5 million record file with about 80,000 records need a correction. They are missing the last data from an append because they didn't have a match. I need to insert defaulted data on these records. My script worked at intended, however I have 54 less output records than input records and I don't know why they were dropped.
Basically what I am doing is appending a long string a data to any records that are missing a value in position 3064-3065.
Since this file is soo large I can't really provide sample data but I'll attempt to reproduce a short version below.
File is fixed length no delimiters.
