Hi i am a noob and need a little help to finish my shell script. I am learning as i go but hit a problem.

I am search thorugh logs(*.rv) files to find entires between two user defined dates,

The script so far looks for the "START" and "END" of each entry at sees if it belongs To user defined ORGID number. then only take the whole record based on OGID and valid entry in the date range given


gawk '/^START/ { ok=0; sec="" } /^START/,/^END/ { sec=sec "\n" $0 }$2==274529 { ok=1 }/^END/ && ok { print sec }' *.rv>BUSORG_ORGID${BUSORG_ORGID}st${START_DAY}${START_MONTH}end${END_DAY}${END_MONTH}.txt



extract of one *.rv file
