Moritz,
thank you for your time.

1. I *corrected* the double quotes and re-run the script. [Script +
output attached]

2. I tried your latest script (the one you attached in the previous
message). It works but I still get those column-type-related WARNINGS.
[Script + output attached]

Kind Regards, Nikos
# I *corrected* the tempcolumn="$tempcolumn""\_tmp"
## Actually it didn't work in first place this is why I experimented a bit by 
adding the double quotes!
