And what do you think you could to prevent that malbehaviour?


Howsoever, try
Code:
for FN in LATAM_TRANS; do sed '/22001/ {p; s//11048/}' "$FN" | sort -t";" -k1,1 -k2,2n > TMP; mv TMP "$FN" ; done

I tried to do sort to overcome the problem. It didn't worked. Any idea how to sort the file based on first 2 field

Code:
sort -k1,5 -k7,2 LATAM_TRANS >> TEMP
