not sure what is wrong with the solution, but.....
sachin.txt:
Code:
Input Rec # 80 Client: BGA Rx No: 7820730 Fill Date: 20070629
Error: (W)Submit Date before Fill Date(SUBMIT-DATE)

Input Rec # 143 Client: BGA Rx No: 7697233 Fill Date: 20070630
Error: (W)Submit Date before Fill Date(SUBMIT-DATE)

Input Rec # 150 Client: BGARx No: 7713043 Fill Date: 20070627
Error: (W)Submit Date after Fill Date(SUBMIT-DATE)

Code:
sed -n '/after/{g;1!p;};h' sachin.txt

output:
Code:
Input Rec # 150 Client: BGARx No: 7713043 Fill Date: 20070627

Isn't what you would expect?
Or is it not what you wanted?
