I really don't know what's left to try then.. for another test, I used terminal, executed a touch command to create split2.awk and then used TextEdit to retype the code character by character with no tabs and I still have the same exact problem.

Are there any other possible solutions? I never thought it would be this much of a hassle -- again, thank you so much for the help.

opps.. replace 'nextline' with 'next'. This will probably work
