i tried like this
while read alpha
do
awk 'substr($0,3,7)<"$alpha"||substr($0,81,7)<"$alpha"'<ecscrfinal >> mkoff.$alpha
awk 'substr($0,3,7)<"$alpha"||substr($0,81,7)<"$alpha"' <ecsdrfinal >> mkoff.$alpha
done < /home/ftp/ecs/usercode
which yielded no results
then like this, $alph without quotes;
while read alpha
do
awk 'substr($0,3,7)<$alpha||substr($0,81,7)<$alpha'<ecscrfinal >> mkoff.$alpha
awk 'substr($0,3,7)<$alpha||substr($0,81,7)<$alpha' <ecsdrfinal >> mkoff.$alpha
done < /home/ftp/ecs/usercode
In this case the entire file is copied to all the userwise split files
What I am doing wrong..... Cant I do substitution inside awk...??
