awk to update value in field of out file using contents of another Ask
In the out.txt below I am trying to use awk to update the contents of $9.. If $9 contains a + or - then $8 of out.txt is used as a key to lookup in $2 of file. When a match ( there will always be one) is found the $3 value of that file is used to update $9 of out.txt separated by a :. So the original +6 value in out.txtwould be +6:NM_005101.3. The awk below is close but has syntax errors that I can not seem to fix. Thank you .
out tab-delimited
file space-delimited
awk
Description:
desired out tab-delimited
lines 1, 3, 5 $9 updated with : and value of $3 in file
line 2 and 4 are skipped as these do not have a + or - in them

If $1 in file1 matches $2 in file2. Then the value in $2 of file2 is updated to $1"."$2 of file2. The awk seems to only match the two files but not update. Thank you :).

I am trying to match $1 in file1 with $2 in file2. If a match is found then $3 and $4 of file2 are copied to file1. Both files are tab-delimeted and I am getting a syntax error and would also like to update file1 in-place without creating a new file, but am not sure how. Thank you :).

There are exactly 4,605 unique $13 values. Thank you :).

bold, using the matching NM_ in $12 or $9 in file2
