Field1 - 94
Field2 - 6
Field3- 32

Your description is quite confusing. What does "Field1 - 94" mean? Is this a field within the record? What is the 94? And so on.

Is there only one record in each input file, or more than one? Do you expect only one record in the output file, or more than one?

I have no idea how this relates to your input example, your actual records, or your expected output.

You need to do a better job of explaing what you want exactly before anyone can help you.

Please show an example of the records in each input file (relevant fields only) and what you expect for output. Explain the "rules" for getting from input to output. Give the starting position, length and format of each relevant field.
