Is this something similar to your other post?

Anyway, What you could do is over a value in both the files

Join based on that value as key

Basically both are more and less same....I thought if we can generate similar key in both the files like I did in other post "status" then it is easy to join two files using ICETOOL based upon the key..


in bottom of the requirement , I want second file data (Test) to be attached in file1 for all the records..

There is no key. But we can generate temporary key in middle of the processing which I did in other post and get rid off from temp key when final output will come. So final output should be,

File1 record1+file2 record
File 1 record2+ file 2 record
So on

Same file2 record will be appended in all file1 records..
