Awk help

Hi,

I have a text file in which I have to search for 2 keywords simultaneously
one of them will be a constant eg . HEADER and the other will be the system date in MM-DD-YYYY format how do i do in awk
both of them will be on the same line always but not together

eg

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxHEADERxxxxxxxxx11-15-2006xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Earlier when i had only 1 string to search I was using

cat <file_name>| awk /"HEADER"/,/"<EOF>"/ > file2.txt

what modifications can i do to include sysdate check as well to the HEADER
keyword ?
