Help with script
I have a file which is comma delimited. I have around 35 fields in each row. The problem is in the 21st field I have data separated by “;” I need the data in only the 21st field separated by “;” to be replaced by “|”. This is a very big file and I need something in awk that its much faster than regular commands. Can anybody tell exactly how I can only achieve this for 21st field.
