That's much clearer, thank you. How about (adding the new fields at the end, so we can print the format info as we go through the file)
Code:
awk '
FNR == 1        {FILENR++
                }

FILENR <= 2     {CNT++
                 CHFM[CNT] = $1
                 RGEX[CNT] = $2
                 DOTS[CNT] = $3
                 FMTS[CNT] = $4
                 FIDX[CNT] = FILENR
                 next
                }

                {printf "%s", $0
                 for (j=4; j<=5; j++)   {TMP = $j
                                         PTR = 0
                                         for (i=1; i<=CNT; i++) if (match (TMP, CHFM[i]))       {printf "|%s|%s|%s|%s|%s", PTR + RSTART, RLENGTH, CHFM[i], DOTS[i], FMTS[i]
                                                                                                 TMP = substr (TMP, RSTART+RLENGTH)
                                                                                                 PTR += RSTART + RLENGTH - 1
                                                                                                 TYP[j-3,FIDX[i]]++
                                                                                                }
                                        }
                 for (j=1; j<=2; j++) printf "|%s|%s", TYP[j,1], TYP[j,2]
                 print ""
                 split ("", TYP)
                }

dbf_dump

DBF_DUMP(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					      DBF_DUMP(1p)

NAME

       dbf_dump - Dump the record of the dbf file

FORMAT

	       dbf_dump [options] files

       where options are

	       --rs	       output record separator (default newline)
	       --fs	       output field separator (default colon)
	       --fields        comma separated list of fields to print (default all)
	       --undef	       string to print for NULL values (default empty)
	       --memofile      specifies unstandard name of attached memo file
	       --memosep       separator for dBase III dbt's (default x1ax1a)

	       --nomemo        do not try to read the memo (dbt/fpt) file
	       --info	       print info about the file and fields
		       with additional --SQL parameter, outputs the SQL create table
	       --version       print version of the XBase library
	       --table	       output in nice table format (only available when

SYNOPSIS

	       dbf_dump -fields id,msg table.dbf
	       dbf_dump -fs=' : ' table
	       dbf_dump --nomemo file.dbf

	       ssh user@host 'cat file.dbf.gz' | gunzip - | dbf_dump -

DESCRIPTION

       Dbf_dump prints to standard output the content of dbf files listed. By default, it prints all fields, separated by colons, one record on a
       line. The output record and column separators can be changed by switches on the command line. You can also ask only for some fields to be
       printed.

       The content of associated memo files (dbf, fpt) is printed for memo fields, unless you use the "--nomemo" option.

       You can specify reading the standard input by putting dash (-) instead of file name.
