Seems like you need to go through your second file (comma delimited file) and get the account information. Using the account number, you can then go through your invoice file. It still isn't clear to me if you are looking to grab all the pages of information for a specific account or not.

Once you have the account number, you could search through the invoice data and pull the information you need - one way would be the awk command - searching for a specific begining string and ending string. Your begining string would be the account number in the invoice file - the ending string I would not know since you can't post a sample. See the man page on awk - look for /start/, /stop/ which prints all lines between the start/stop pair. Then once you have all the pages, you do what you need to and go on to the next account number.

sg

SG(1)                                                              User Commands                                                             SG(1)

NAME

       sg - execute command as different group ID

SYNOPSIS

       sg [-] [group [-c ] command]

DESCRIPTION

       The sg command works similar to newgrp but accepts a command. The command will be executed with the /bin/sh shell. With most shells you may
       run sg from, you need to enclose multi-word commands in quotes. Another difference between newgrp and sg is that some shells treat newgrp
       specially, replacing themselves with a new instance of a shell that newgrp creates. This doesn't happen with sg, so upon exit from a sg
       command you are returned to your previous group ID.

CONFIGURATION

       The following configuration variables in /etc/login.defs change the behavior of this tool:

       SYSLOG_SG_ENAB (boolean)
           Enable "syslog" logging of sg activity.

FILES

       /etc/passwd
           User account information.

       /etc/shadow
           Secure user account information.

       /etc/group
           Group account information.

       /etc/gshadow
           Secure group account information.

SEE ALSO

       id(1), login(1), newgrp(1), su(1), gpasswd(1), group(5), gshadow(5).
