That would be perfect

How does this work on one file:
Code:
awk 'FNR==1 {
        FNUM++
        if(LF) close(LF);
        LF=FILENAME".out"
}
{    printf("%s|0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d|\n", FNUM, FNR) > LF; }' input.cdr

awk: cmd. line:5: { printf("%s|0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d|\n", FNUM, FNR);> LF }
awk: cmd. line:5: ^ syntax error

sample cdr format : i need to append to the end of each line like below mentioned extra columns and a random no followed by |. so as to make each cdr undoubtedly unique

There were some mistakes in my original try, how about this:

Code:
awk 'FNR==1 {
        FNUM++
        if(LF) close(LF);
        LF=FILENAME".out"
}
{    printf("%s|0| | | | | | | |%08d%08d|\n", $0, FNUM, FNR) > LF; }' input.cdr

Looks perfect friend, Just please tell me, how to pick all files in a dir and do above appending. I am asking for this because, I have to deal with exact 45-50 files with 60k cdr's in each file.

Do these files have anything in common with each other? What do they look like?

After %s , space was needed as to provide a column width between last | and the first | we added. I made that change to the script you provided

In post#10, i provided a sample cdr, these files will have n number of lines with same cdr format
