000710505       Anthony Esteves 20

$ awk '{_i=$3 "," $2; printf("U%-19s%-39s%-130s%-178s%-41s%-0s00\n", $1, _i, "01/01/10", "SCAD Group Inc.", "PA01001000100100PA01011010101101AD0100100", $4)}' tu.txt>tu1.txt

vgersh00,

Thanks...that's work Smilie

Just wondering....how do put it in cron so it will automate to run everyday at certain time? Do i need to save it as a program (instead of type it in command line), and excecute it as the program from cron?

I would.
Don't forget to make the script executable.
Don't forget to remove at 'relative' pathnames with FULL pathnames

I tried to put it in a file and run the command:

Code:
#! /bin/awk -f

awk 'FNR==1{print "V2"} {_i=$3 "," $2; printf("U%-19s%-39s%-130s%-178s%-41s%-0s00\n", $1, _i, "01/01/10", "SCAD Group Inc.", "PA01001000100100PA01011010101101AD0100100", $4)}' tu.txt>tu1.txt

Here is the output:

$ awk -f prog.txt
syntax error The source line is 4.
The error context is
awk >>> ' <<<

I also try:
awk -f prog.txt tu.txt>tu1.txt

It still gives me the same error message

prog.awk:
Code:
#!/bin/nawk -f

FNR==1{print "V2"} {_i=$3 "," $2; printf("U%-19s%-39s%-130s%-178s%-41s%-0s00\n", $1, _i, "01/01/10", "SCAD Group Inc.", "PA01001000100100PA01011010101101AD0100100", $4)

chmod 755 prog.awk
prog.awk tu.txt > tu1.txt

I changed the permission but it doesn't work.

Here is the error message:

Savannah Poller> prog.awk tu.txt>tu1.txt
sh: prog.awk: not found.

Any idea why?
