Re: awk and date command

["Lou Spironello" <lspironello@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Ann:

man (g)awk   

:-)

awk -v | --assign  <internal variable name>=<variable value> <other awk options and stuff>


Not quite sure what you want to do do.  Can you show the resulting output or be a bit more specific.


Regards,
Lou

Hi Lou

Thank you very much

One more question. how can I put the CGA number as
variable?

eg: CGA001, CGA002..... when
i run the program

awk -v CGA=`for loop` program.awk file.txt

or any way to do it?

Thank you again



BEGIN { RS = "\n" ; FS = "|" }
{

print "File No.: CGA001

print ""
}
