Wow..... I was way off.
Here is an update:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use strict;

my %stock;
$stock{'128'} = [0,224,0,0];
$stock{'12'} = [0,0,15,0];
$stock{'8'} = [32,0,0,0];

while (<DATA>) {  ## file2
  my @data = split(',',$_);
  if (exists $stock{$data[0]}) {
    my $ary_ref = $stock{$data[0]};
    my ($sm,$md,$lg,$xl) = @$ary_ref;

    if($sm eq '0'){$sm=''}else{$sm=0};
    if($md eq '0'){$md=''}else{$md=0};
    if($lg eq '0'){$lg=''}else{$lg=0};
    if($xl eq '0'){$xl=''}else{$xl=0};


    $data[9]  = $sm;
    $data[12] = $md;
    $data[15] = $lg;
    $data[18] = $xl;
  }
  print (join(',', @data));
}

__DATA__
128,1,Download,0,,TEXT,2,Size,2,??,SM,3,??,MD,4,??,LG,5,??,XL
12,1,Download,0,,TEXT,2,Size,2,??,SM,3,??,MD,4,??,LG,5,??,XL
8,1,Download,0,,TEXT,2,Size,2,??,SM,3,??,MD,4,??,LG,5,??,XL

What's scary is.... I Almost understand it.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
