Yes my input file looks like that , ie, without separator characters.

All fields has fixed length

It must've been difficult finding customers who all had names that are the same
length.

They probably make name tags :)

Hi Janis,

I appreciate your help.

Following your suggestion i'm getting a blank field into my output
file.

My input file is:

5188824071shell 14/07/2008
12:48:44 51.50ABNN 94932030

My id.map file is

5188824071 1215559042

The command used:

awk 'BEGIN { OFS=";" }
NR==FNR { map[$1] = $2 ; next }
NR>1 { print "APPL", substr($0,84,15),
substr($0,48,10),"map[substr($0,11,10)]",substr($0,67,13),"USD",substr($0,84,15),"TEST" }'
id.map my_input_file > output

I got the output like:(but the value that i need is empty after the
date 14/07/2008 as you can see ";;")

APPL; 94932030;14/07/2008;; 51.50;USD;
94932030;TEST

When i tried the comand

FNR>1 { print "APPL", substr($0,84,15),
substr($0,48,10),"map[substr($0,11,10)]",substr($0,67,13),"USD",substr($0,84,15),"TEST" }'
id.map my_input_file > output

Nothing is coming in my output file.

Do you know what i'm doing wrong?

Thanks!
