Now here I am looking for the filed $8 ( example: asuhan@ixload_build_rh9_linux2_4_asuhan in the first output line below ) but it may be $7, $8 ... $10 anywhere.

Only think I am sure is that - it will come after the string "by" - Please help me to grab it ... Any idea how ???

Code:
$ p4 opened -a | grep *locked*

or better yet with just sed

Code:
p4 users | sed -n -e 's_^tkdas.* __p'

another solution...as you said date comes last....and format is 2006/02/06
then
Code:
P4 users | grep tkdas | awk '{ print substr($0,length($0)-9,10) }'

Thank you so much ...

$ p4 users | grep "\<tkdas\>"
tkdas <tkdas@myemail.com> (Tusar Kanti Das) accessed 2005/12/09

$ p4 users | grep "\<li\>"
li <tli@myemail.com> (Thomas Li) accessed 2006/02/08

Buddy - any idea, how can I grab the name filed above case, as qith awk $3 and $4 will not give the name. But the name always comes within the bracket, like this "(Name XXX)" .

cool ... here it is .. no putput :-(

$ p4 users | grep "\<tkdas\>" | sed -n -e 's_.*((.*\) .).*$_\1_p'

Tried this with inspiration from

$ p4 opened -a | sed -n -e 's_.*by \(.*\) .locked. *$_\1_p'
