I am afraid this solution is not working. Also I can see that the command is using the hardcode values (XML). This will not be the case with the records; any value can come at any place.

I need a solution based on positions. It's getting urgent for me, I would be thankful if someone can help.

I would appreciate if somebody can provide solution with record as 1 line , using sed or awk.
