Another one, using the first record as a model for the order:
Code:
awk -F= '
  {
    split($1,K,/,/)
    O[K[1]]
    A[$1]=$2
  } 

  K[1]==1 {
    F[NR]=K[2]
    n=NR
  }  

  END {
    for(i in O) {
      s=i
      for(j=1; j<=n; j++)
        s=s OFS A[i OFS F[j]]
      print s
    }
  }
' OFS=, file

Output:
Code:
2,2000,Providence,steve,jobs,User002
1,1000,CedarparkHospital,john,doe,User001

I would like to convert it into the below format:

Code:
1,1000,CedarparkHospital,john,doe,User001
2,2000,Providence,steve,jobs,User002

Thanks for your help.

Hello kumar,

Following may help you also.

Code:
awk -F, '{gsub(/.*\=/,X,$2);A[$1]=A[$1]?A[$1] OFS $2:$2} END{for(u in A){print u OFS A[u]}}' OFS=, Input_file

Output will be as follows.
Code:
1,1000,CedarparkHospital,john,doe,User001
2,User002,2000,steve,jobs,Providence

Thanks,
R. Singh

Try

Code:
$ cat infile
1,ID=1000
1,Org=CedarparkHospital
1,cn=john
1,sn=doe
1,uid=User001
2,uid=User002
2,ID=2000
2,cn=steve
2,sn=jobs
2,Org=Providence

Code:
$ cat parse.awk
BEGIN{
	# Modify this variable if you want to change field order or if you want to remove any field
	order = "id,org,cn,sn,uid"

	# Header variable
	header = "RECORD"

	# Field Sep
	FS="[,=]"


	hn    = split(order,ORDER,/,/)
	
}
{
	A[$1,tolower($2)] = $3
	if(!tmp[$1]++)
	{
		SEQ[++c] = $1
	}
}
END{
	delete tmp;
	
	for(i=1; i<=c; i++)
	{
		str = SEQ[i]
		for(j=1; j<=hn; j++)
		{
			if(!Is_header_printed)
			{
				header = header OFS toupper(ORDER[j])
			}
			
			key = SEQ[i] SUBSEP ORDER[j] 
	
			if( key in A )
			{
				str = str OFS A[key]
				delete A[key]
			}else
			{
				str = str OFS "NaN"
			}    
		}
		
		if(!Is_header_printed)
		{
			print header
			Is_header_printed = !Is_header_printed
		}

		print str
	}
}

Code:
$ awk -vOFS="," -f parse.awk infile
RECORD,ID,ORG,CN,SN,UID
1,1000,CedarparkHospital,john,doe,User001
2,2000,Providence,steve,jobs,User002

For the sort, did you want:
Code:
sort -k 1 col2rodata -o col2rodata

but that would alter the input data, which may or may not work depending on file size, file permissions, filesystem options, best practices, and alien intervention. Well, maybe not the last one. At any rate, may I suggest:
Code:
ro=1
lines=
sort -k 1 "${@}" | while read line
do
