Thanks a lot everyone, I think raj_saini20 nailed it, this is what I need.
Was going with
Code:
sed 's/^[0-9][0-9][0-9][^0-9]/0&/;s/^[0-9][0-9][^0-9]/00&/;s/^[0-9][^0-9]/000&/' /path/to/infile
to insert leading 0s, but this would have required more help from RudiC as my columns to join by are not necessarily t the start of the file.....i would have needed the padded 0s anywhere between columns 6 and 11...
Thanks again,
cheers
Sid

-br break up URL into elements.
-rs resolve relative URL.
-l output the tailing newline.
-e expr
specify input data directly.
-c num limit the number of columns of the encoded data.
-hd parse MIME and extract headers in TSV format.
-bd parse MIME and extract the body.
-part num
parse MIME and extract a part.
-ec code
specify the input encoding, which is UTF-8 by default.
-qp use quoted-printable encoding, which is Base64 by default.

-oc code
specify the output encoding, which is UTF-8 by default.
-ol ltype
convert line feed characters, with `unix'(LF), `dos'(CRLF), and `mac'(CR).
-cn detect the input encoding and show its name.
-wc count the number of characters of the input string of UTF-8.
-um output mappings of UCS-2 characters and C strings of UTF-16BE and UTF-8.
