$30-250 USD

Paid on delivery
I have a csv file that has a list of books that I offer on my website. There are quantity, date available, and weight columns in this file that I would like updated using a file provided by my book distributor. The data file provided by my distributor is a fixed width .dat file that is around 500-600mb (I can provide position and width of the colum data). This file has over 2million books. I only need information on the 7000 or so books I offer on my site. The common field on both files is the UPC or ISBN Code. What I need is a fast, easy and efficient way to update this data. It can be done in any manner offline or online that you suggest, but has to result in a tab delimited file and I have to be able to update it myself weekly.

Hello, I will complete your task in one day after receiving all files, include layout (position, names and length for fixed file is required). Also, I'll match both files and maybe will ask you some questions about matching and updating rules. Distributor data should be archived (ZIP) before sending due to big size of the file. As result, I will provide a file in any format, for example in the same as your input file.
