Hi dsh007,

This is not the only way, but...you need to do the following:
  • go to folder with your csv files
  • create a file called names.awk with this code in:
Code:
BEGIN{FS=","}
NR==1 {
    for(i=1;i<=NF;i++) {
        if($i~/NAME/ || $i=="STLC") {
            cols[i]=i
            head = head==""? $i : head","$i
        }
    } 
    print head
    next
}
{
    for (item in cols) {
        row = row==""? $item : row","$item
    }
    print row
    row = ""
}

  • type this script, as given by @michaelrozar17 into your shell:
Code:
for file in `ls *.csv`
do
    awk -f names.awk $file > ${file%.*}-new.${file#*.}
done

Try this, if it does not work post back what you have typed and the error message.

Good luck.Smilie

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
