Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to ignore Pipe in Pipe delimited file? Post 302842199 by Yoda on Thursday 8th of August 2013 03:42:59 PM

You could try something like:
Code:
sed 's#\("[^|]*\)\([|]\)\([^|]*"\)#\1,\3#g' file | awk -F\| '{gsub(/"/,x);sub(",","|",$3);print $3}'

The sed is substituting the pipe to comma so that awk can recognize it as one field.

Later awk substitute the comma back to pipe.
