Replacing column 1 in one file with values in other file
Please help me with an shell / awk script to achieve following;
File-1:
ABCDW01 12322 23322
BDADW01 22232 24453
EDFAW00 32232 23422
and so on, notice that the first coloumn is a code and the another file contains the real value of each entry in the first colum above but not in a particular order.
File-2:
EDFAW00 XXWY_11_1
BDADW01 UHBS_100_0
ABCDW01 CATS_200_1
and so on.
I want to replace in the first file entries in column 1 with their acutal values in file 2, so essentially, this is what I want to achieve
Result Required;
CATS_200_1 12322 23322
UHBS_100_0 22232 24453
XXWY_11_1 32232 23422
This is not a homework.
Thanks for any help in advance.

IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)
NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
