thanks a trillion Akshay Hegde.

I have a final request to let me kbnow the logic behind this awk script as i will be using the same login to make this happen for csv which have almost 200 fileds or the changes i have to make in the script if i have to make the column values as black mean to say NULL values. so result should be csv containing 200 fileds which will be combination of colums which have headers alongwith their values and columns which will have header but no values that is NULL.

thanks again for the help you provided.
