03,F,F ,001,000,012,000,America
04,F,F ,023,000,012,000,America

01,EGYPT,0001,AUH
03,F,F ,001,001,012,001,Y,EGYPT
04,F,F ,023,000,012,001,001,EGYPT
01,SPAIN,0001,AUH
03,F,A ,021,000,012,000,SPAIN
04,F,F ,023,000,017,000,SPAIN
03,F,A ,002,105,012,008,Y,SPAIN
04,F,A ,023,000,012,000,000,SPAIN
Its to be noted that the order of records matter and the count of records between 2 subsequent 01 record is is not fixed.
Any help on the same is appreciated.

}
' infile

$ cat infile

For fun, a Perl option:
Code:
perl -ple 'if (m/^01/) { $loc = (split /,/)[1] } else { $_ = "$_,$loc" }' file
More
awk -ishly Perl:
Code:
perl -F, -plae 'if ($F[0] == '01') { $loc = $F[1] } else { $_ = "$_,$loc" }' file
(I like the first version better since it only splits the '01' lines, and in a big file that might amount to a significant difference.)
