serach file using awk

mohan705 · #1 (**permalink**) 08-28-2007

Hi,
I was able to print lines when search for specific string using awk but i want to print when search for two different strings using awk instead of doing two times (Print lines only contain "Insert Records and Insert into" not between lines)

Ex:
awk '/Insert Records./' a4.log

It displaying all lines strat with Insert Records
ex:

Insert records total:4
Insert records total:6
Insert records total:8

awk '/Insert into./' a4.log
ex:
Insert into t1
Insert into t2
Insert into t3

Thanks inadvance
Mohan
