In Help, Substitute Text ...
i'm writing a script that will extract and substitute a certain part of a data.
i'm having trouble with the substituting part ... Here's my data looks like: 01/01/08-001-23:46:18-01/01/08-23:50:43 01/01/08-003-23:45:19-01/01/08-23:55:49 01/01/08-005-23:52:18-01/01/08-23:58:52 i want to change the second column i.e. 001,003,005 to: CODE01 for 001, CODE03 for 003 and CODE05 for 005. so that it will look like this ... 01/01/08-CODE01-23:46:18-01/01/08-23:50:43 01/01/08-CODE03-23:45:19-01/01/08-23:55:49 01/01/08-CODE05-23:52:18-01/01/08-23:58:52 i have separate a file for the list of codes to be substituted. i tried using sed, but can't figure out how. i'm on: using csh SunOS 5.8 Generic_108528-22 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-MP oh btw, im new here =D
