nawk if within if condition

Hi,
I tried to use two if statement within one if statement in nawk and it keeps giving me the error message:
What did I go wrong here?

Thanks a lot!


#input file: qa2g:qa2_3:qa2,00380,1,Cat
#$1=qa2g:qa2_3:qa2
some=index($1,":")

if some != 0 {

if (split($1,label,Smilie) != 0 {
iterationposition=index(label(2),_)
if iterationposition != 0 {
iteration=substr(label(2),interationposition,2)
}
}
}

pls do use vB Codes when posting sample data/code - it's impossible to see what you're trying to do.

What is IT that you're trying to do?
Give a sample input file and a desired result, pls - I don't understand what this code is doing/supposed to do.
