Hmm..that did not seem to have any results...but thanks anyways. What I did is:

awk 'FNR>15' myfile |grep -v -e "record(s) selected." -e "Return Status" > mynewfile



Don't know if that is the wrong way of doing it. I am sure you experienced folks will have a better way of doing it, but alas, it accomplished what I wanted.

Thanks again!!
