Hi

I have a file which is having following text. The file is in a tabular form with 5 fields. i.e field1, field2 ..... field5 are its columns and there are many rows in it say COUNT is the number of rows

Field 1 Field2 Field3 Field4 Field5
------- ------- ------ ------ ------
abs sddd wee dffsd ffsdf
wqe dqdd wdqd dwqd weqwq
wqew wede wedw ddwe ewdfw
ewew weew rrfff edff ferf

I want to use the above file in my shell script.
Using AWK i want to loop through all the lines of the above file in the shell script.

In each iteration of the loop i want the field 1,field 3 and field 5 values in my own variables VAR1, VAR2, VAR3 defined in the shell script.


Kindly provide me with the necessary code.
