I do apologize if it appeared that way. honestly i tried the whole day reading about arrays and doin some scripting stuff. unfortunately until now, I am still trying to understand all of it. i just what to understand how the the suggested script worked. i can actually pick it up from there.

Code:
awk '{ if(match($0,/myURL/)>0) {arr[$1]=$0 } }
        END{for (i in arr )
                  print arr[i] } '  myweblog > somefile

match() does grep-like regular expressions in awk. There is also a ~ (match operator)
which makes the code harder to read if you are not used to it.
