The important thing that the OP needs to specify is what is the criterion?

Because that determines what is a valid solution. For example: if it is "do not change the field separator for occurrences of ,00":
Code:
awk '{for(i=1; i<=NF; i++) gsub(/,/,"|",$i)}1' FS=,00 OFS=,00  file

But if the idea is to only do it after the first two fields and before the last field:
Code:
sed 's/,/|/; s/,/|/; s/,\([^|]*\)$/|\1/' file

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
