thanks blastit but unfortunately my requiremenst dont allow me to do a xml and thhe conversion..I ahve figured out how to prevent the dropping of leading zeroes but I need a SED code that would work when data contains double quotes and commas within them to convert the pipe delim to csv.

It would be great if we can come up with any sed/awk solution.

NAME
processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files SUMMARY
virt-top --csv data.csv processcsv.py < data.csv DESCRIPTION
virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains. processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv". It is used like this: virt-top --csv data.csv processcsv.py < data.csv The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory: "global.csv" This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file. "domainNN.csv" (multiple files) For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file. SEE ALSO
