Use cut to cut out the column by character count.

Use nawk or /usr/xpg4/bin/awk on Solaris:


Code:
cal|awk '{print/^  /?$NF:$7}'

A very ugly way to do this...But the solution suggested by radoulov must be the best way..

Code:
cal | sed -n '/\(.*\) \(.*\) \(.*\) \(.*\) \(.*\) \(.*\) \(.*\)/p' |sed 's/\(.*\) \(.*\)/\2/'
