Thanks Klashxx for instant replies.

I changed the script to look like this.

Code:
awk '{         
        nbr=split($0,arr,",")
        for(ix=1;ix<=nbr;ix++){
        print "db2 \"INSERT INTO PRICING_PRODUCT_CODES (PRODUCT_CODE, NETWORK_NAME, ACTIVE) values (\'"arr[ix]"\',\'some value\',1) " 
        print "where NOT EXISTS (select * from TABLE_NAME where PRODUCT_CODE = \'"arr[ix]"\');\"" 
    }' PRICING_PRODUCT_CODES.txt

And I got this error
Code:
0403-057 Syntax error at line 33 : `)' is not expected.

Basically, I want insert queries like this

Code:
Insert into table(col1,col2) values('valuefromfile1','staticvalue1') where ....;
Insert into table(col1,col2) values('valuefromfile2','staticvalue2') where ....;
