Looking to make a change to an xml tag from a list of info found in a txt file.

txt file contains a list of data as follows

644111111111,102.23

644255555555,94.8

644492835633,17.71

XML contains two tags where this info can be found:

<KEY_BOL_REF>644111111111</KEY_BOL_REF>

<CARBOL_TRSP_VALUE>0.00</CARBOL_TRSP_VALUE>

I need to find the corresponding 12 digit number from the txt in the xml and replace its CARBOL tag with the amount found next to the number in the text (after the comma). I am able to find the number but can't seem to change the amount of CARBOL. Here is the code i have so far. it also ensures that another tag is set to USD. Thanks.

 open(BASE, "C:/POS/POSA.xml");
open(IN, "C:/POS/Macro/awb.txt");
open(OUT, ">POSA_new.xml");

%map = ();

while (<IN>) {
    chomp $_;
    @items = split(/\,/, $_);
    $map{$items[0]} = $items[2];
}

close IN;
$cur_awb = "0";
$cur_val = $map{$items[0]} = $items[2];

while (<BASE>) {
    chomp $_;

    if ($_ =~ m/\<KEY_BOL_REF\>(\d*)\<\/KEY_BOL_REF\>/) {
        $cur_awb = $1;
        print OUT $_ . "\n";
    }
    elsif ($_ =~ m/\<CARBOL_TRSP_VALUE\>/) {
        print OUT "\t<CARBOL_TRSP_VALUE>" .$cur_val. "</CARBOL_TRSP_VA
+LUE>\n";
    }
    elsif ($_ =~ m/\<CARBOL_TRSP_CUR\/\>/) {
        print OUT "\t<CARBOL_TRSP_CUR>USD</CARBOL_TRSP_CUR>\n";
    } else {
        print OUT $_ . "\n";
    }
}
