yep because it has no spaces after komma as you wrote in your first post

use:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
TEXTFILE=/home/z1uals/src/pdsa/mydat/textDMR.txt

for i in $(head -1 $TEXTFILE | tr '\t' ',' | sed 's/,/ /g')
 do
  echo "$i=decode(:$i, '?', $i, :$i),"
 done |  tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | sed '$ s/,$//'

And this is the output of head -1 /home/z1uals/src/pdsa/mydat/textDMR.txt:
DMR_RUN_ID RMA_SERVER_ID INSTRUMENT_ID PORTFOLIO_ID OAS PRICE

Basically the header of the file is tab delimited.

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
TEXTFILE=/home/z1uals/src/pdsa/mydat/textDMR.txt

for i in $(head -1 $TEXTFILE)
 do
  echo "$i=decode(:$i, '?', $i, :$i),"
 done |  tr [:upper:] [:lower:] | sed '$ s/,$//'
