trying to get a boolean response from sed

I have a file coming in with many columns, but the first character of the the coumn is a record type, if I wanted to get a true/false kind of response as to whether it contains at least one of each type of record how would be best?

sed -e '/01/!d; /02/!d; /03/!d; /04/!d' datafile

returns many rows if any are true, I need it to return if all are true and return false if at least one is missing. Smilie

Is there an easier way to do this?

Headcheck1=`awk -F"," '$1=="01" {print $1}' datafile will do one line only, am a little frustrated.

help please.

NAME
Apache::TestHandler - a few response handlers and helpers SYNOPSIS
package My::Test; use Apache::TestHandler (); sub handler { my ($r) = @_; my $result = do_my_test; Apache::TestHandler::ok1 $r, $result; } sub handler2 { my ($r) = @_; my $result = do_my_test; Apache::TestHandler::ok $r, $result; } DESCRIPTION
"Apache::TestHandler" provides 2 very simple response handler. FUNCTIONS
ok $r, $boolean The handler simply prints out "ok" or "not ok" depending on the optional $boolean parameter. If $boolean is omitted "true" is assumed. ok1 $r, $boolean This handler implements a simple response-only test. It can be used on its own to check if for a certain URI the response phase is reached. Or it can be called like a normal function to print out the test result. The client side is automatically created as described in <http://perl.apache.org/docs/general/testing/testing.html#Developing_Response_only_Part_of_a_Test>. $boolean is optional. If omitted "true" is assumed. same_interp_counter same_interp_fixup TODO SEE ALSO
