Insert comments in a loop
I got an output file where I have insert some comments inbetween
e.g.

My file looks like this---
Code:
userA   10.120.xxx.xxx   Jan 21   01:00   03:00   userA1
userB   10.120.xxx.xxx   Jul 03    10:00   13:00   userB1
userC   10.120.xxx.xxx   Aug 04  14:00   21:00   userC1

I Would like to write a new file which looks like this...
Code:
"Employee" userA1 "logged into" 'hostname' "at" 01:00 "on" Jan 21 "as OS user" userA "and logged off at" 03:00

Thanks
