When it does not work, show what did not work.
Also the aspect of writing it to a variable is new.

Try this:
Code:
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> VAR=`sed -e '/^Started at/!d; q' -e 's/^Started at \(.*\)/\1/' infile`
root@isau02:/data/tmp/testfeld> echo $VAR

	Object oriented style

public string NumberFormatter::getTextAttribute (int $attr) DESCRIPTION

An example of a text attribute is the suffix for positive numbers. If the formatter does not understand the attribute, U_UNSUPPORTED_ERROR error is produced.

Return attribute value on success, or FALSE on error. EXAMPLES
Example #1 numfmt_get_text_attribute(3) example <?php $fmt = numfmt_create( 'de_DE', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL ); echo "Prefix: ".numfmt_get_text_attribute($fmt, NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX)." "; echo numfmt_format($fmt, -1234567.891234567890000)." "; numfmt_set_text_attribute($fmt, NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX, "MINUS"); echo "Prefix: ".numfmt_get_text_attribute($fmt, NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX)." "; echo numfmt_format($fmt, -1234567.891234567890000)." "; ?> Example #2 OO example <?php $fmt = new NumberFormatter( 'de_DE', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL ); echo "Prefix: ".$fmt->getTextAttribute(NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX)." "; echo $fmt->format(-1234567.891234567890000)." "; $fmt->setTextAttribute(NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX, "MINUS"); echo "Prefix: ".$fmt->getTextAttribute(NumberFormatter::NEGATIVE_PREFIX)." "; echo $fmt->format(-1234567.891234567890000)." "; ?> The above example will output: Prefix: - -1.234.567,891 Prefix: MINUS MINUS1.234.567,891 SEE ALSO
