reverse search in awk script

Hi,

I am new to awk. Actually I want to search a pattern A, when I get that line with pattern A then for one of the field of that line again I want search on that field (say pattern B)from start of the file.
I am using awk. Is nested searching possible in awk?

Please do the needful as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Bookmarks
