Hi Don,
Thanks for your offer. Would be great to get it all in awk.
Here's an example template file:
Code:
                    Rateband prices per 01-01-2012
=========================================
PRODUCT with 5+ 10+ 50+ and 100+ prices
=========================================
Original 2GB: %VAR_USOR2GB_1% %VAR_USOR2GB_2% %VAR_USOR2GB_3% %VAR_USOR2GB_4%
Original 4GB: %VAR_USOR4GB_1% %VAR_USOR4GB_2% %VAR_USOR4GB_3% %VAR_USOR4GB_4%
Original 8GB: %VAR_USOR8GB_1% %VAR_USOR8GB_2% %VAR_USOR8GB_3% %VAR_USOR8GB_4%

Thanks,
P

And this is an example of the csv file:
Code:
USOR2GB, 10.25, 9.23, 8.47, 8.21
USOR4GB, 10.55, 9.53, 8.69, 8.58
USOR8GB, 10.75, 9.83, 8.97, 8.91

---------- Post updated at 10:41 PM ---------- Previous update was at 10:33 PM ----------

Just for the record.
This is how the example output should look like:

Code:
                    Rateband prices per 01-01-2012
=========================================
PRODUCT with 5+ 10+ 50+ and 100+ prices
=========================================
Original 2GB: 10.25 9.23 8.47 8.21
Original 4GB: 10.55 9.53 8.69 8.58
Original 8GB: 10.75 9.83 8.97 8.91

The actual template is an xml file (that becomes an sla file), so a lot more sophisticated than this example, but I suppose you get the point.
