SED/AWK to edit/add field values in a record

Hi Experts,

I am new to shell scripting. Need some help in doing one task given by the customer.

The sample record in a file is as follows:

Code:
3538,,,,,,ID,ID1,,,,,,,,,,,

It needs to be the following:

Code:
3538,,353800,353800,,,ID,ID1,,,,,COLX,,,,,COLY,

And i want to modify this record in the following manner:

1. 3rd & 4th Column should be equals to 2 zeroes at the end of the first field.
2. COLX & COLY needs to added and this value is static.

Needs to implement this using sed/awk in the most efficient way.

Thanks.

Locale::Codes::LangExt(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangExt(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangExt; $lext = code2langext('acm'); # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic' $code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm' @codes = all_langext_codes(); @names = all_langext_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in the IANA language registry. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language registry codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. 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 = code2langext('acm','alpha'); $lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
