awk help needed

Hi,

i have input records as shown below.

HTML Code:
4097,Probe3,G10,255,05/17/2011 12:44:03:185,NULL,05/17/2011 12:39:03:180,05/17/2011 12:44:03:185,99,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,airtelgprs.com,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,223.191.39.40,NULL,NULL,9100019600296201,404929600299653,919004603064,NULL,65535,NULL,NULL,65535,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,4294967295,4294967295,4294967295,4294967295,NULL,3431717227,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,0,0,0,0,0,0,NULL,NULL,223.191.39.40,NULL,4294967295,NULL,4294967295,65535,1,65535,NULL,3431717227,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,
4097,Probe3,G10,255,05/17/2011 12:44:03:185,16,05/17/2011 12:39:03:180,05/17/2011 12:39:03:197,2,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,airtelgprs.com,NULL,0,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,223.191.39.40,NULL,NULL,9100019600296201,404929600299653,919004603064,NULL,65535,NULL,NULL,65535,0,NULL,NULL,NULL,4294967295,4294967295,4294967295,4294967295,NULL,3431717227,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,223.191.39.40,NULL,4294967295,NULL,4294967295,65535,1,65535,NULL,3431717227,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,

now first field say 4093 needs to incremented with command line val variable say val is 3 then first field should be 4096.

and all other fields should remain same.

want to know how we can achive this with awk ?


Thanks in advance.

If you just want to add some values to column#1 and leave the remaining as is..then..
Code:
awk -F, '{$1=$1+3}1' OFS="," inputfile
