Hi,
I'm new to PERL and would like to seek help for the task mentioned below:
I'm attempting to read the contents of a file containing rows with the format
shown below:
version|exchange|area|date|time|callmod|callid|callno1|callno2|part2|start_date|start_time|spare|dur|flag_ini|indicator|length|ni|calling_nai|screening|address_i|num_plan_ind|publicservice_user|spare1|spare2|calling_no|line_no|spare3|spare4|called_nai|called_num_plan_ind|spare5|called_num|spare6|di_nai|di_num_plan_ind|spare7|dest_num|dest_num_type|spare8|doc|dccc_type|spare9|dt_update|spare10|subs_type|cug_code|spare11|teleservices|spare12|channel_isdn|calling_terminal|pulses|in_port|out_port|in_pop|out_pop|spare13|out_mod|spare14|link2bb_type|out_cic|in_cic|anomaly_code|anomaly_ind|spare15|spare16|location|cause_value|spare17|final_status|ingress_ip|egress_ip|inter_dur|bid_time|term_call_setup_delay|del_call_setup_delay|term_ccd|int_call_clear_delay|trans_delay|inter_jitter|send_packets|send_octets|rec_packets|rec_octets|lost_packets|lost_packets_out|packet_period|code_alg|spare20|silence_suppr|spare21|coi|spare22|

I'm interested in modifying the values at the 3rd and 26th column of 1
particular row in this file and duplicating that row values to populate it to
4000 rows. There are 2123 rows in the this file currently.
Below is the script which I've written in order to modify the values at the
column mentioned.
However, I'm not sure how I could rewrite the newly modified column values of
that particular row back into the file - I want to use the particular row which
had its columns modified to be duplicated and appended to the end of the
current file for a specific number of time (adding more rows with the
duplicated rows).

Could anyone help me out?
