Try this,

Or

Hi

The sample file you provided is different from your actual file.

Try this:

#awk 'NR==FNR{a[$1]=i++;next}NF>1{print $1,(a[$1])?a[$1]:$2;next}1' FS=, OFS=, i=1 a1 a2 > a2_
#mv -f a2_ a2...

Hi

Make sure the files a1 and a2 are brought to their previous states before running the commands. Other than that, I dont see any reason.

Hi
Not sure why the first one did not work for you.

I will ask you to try the first one again, it should work for you. If not,

#awk 'NR==FNR{a[$1]=i++;next}{print $1,a[$1]}' FS=, OFS=, i=1 a1...

Hi

Just try this:
#awk 'NR==FNR{a[$1]=i++;next}{print $1,a[$1]}' FS=, OFS=, i=1 a1 a2
