How to use awk in inserting single quote

Hi Guys,

Please someone help me to insert these numbers (enclosed with single quotes) to a statement using awk command. I'm having hard time of putting single quotes on these numbers.


input file:
Code:
10214
68441
07205
80731
92234
55432


DESIRED OUTPUT:
Code:
My ID Number='10214';
My ID Number='68441';
My ID Number='07205';
My ID Number='80731';
My ID Number='92234';
My ID Number='55432';


Thanks in advance.


Br,
Pinpe

Number::Compare(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					Number::Compare(3)

NAME
Number::Compare - numeric comparisons SYNOPSIS
Number::Compare->new(">1Ki")->test(1025); # is 1025 > 1024 my $c = Number::Compare->new(">1M"); $c->(1_200_000); # slightly terser invocation DESCRIPTION
Number::Compare compiles a simple comparison to an anonymous subroutine, which you can call with a value to be tested again. Now this would be very pointless, if Number::Compare didn't understand magnitudes. The target value may use magnitudes of kilobytes ("k", "ki"), megabytes ("m", "mi"), or gigabytes ("g", "gi"). Those suffixed with an "i" use the appropriate 2**n version in accordance with the IEC standard: http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html METHODS
->new( $test ) Returns a new object that compares the specified test. ->test( $value ) A longhanded version of $compare->( $value ). Predates blessed subroutine reference implementation. ->parse_to_perl( $test ) Returns a perl code fragment equivalent to the test. AUTHOR
