Greetings All; I have a script that handles our pop numbers and it requires I change the format of a large poplist we use for input. This is the format - CA,Anaheim,714,408,4411 and what I need is - CA,Anaheim,714-408-4411 because I don't enough perl to modify the script and I can't figure out how use sed to do it. awk will do the substitution, but removes the first 2 commas in the process. awk -F, '{print $1,$2,$3,-$4,-$5}' poplist Thoughts? snippets of code?
