Hello zozoo,

Could you please go through following explanation and let me know if this helps you.
Code:
awk -F',| ' '{           ##making field separator as comma(,) OR space here for each line.
print $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$NF ##Printing the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and $NF(last field) od the line.
}
' OFS=,   Input_file     ##Setting Output filed separator as comma and mentioning Input_file here too.

Thanks,
R. Singh
