thanks...
but how would i then put a / after the value of PATH which will be between the filename and it's path
it doesn't seem that PATH gets a formating expression since it's comming before the formatting expressions.... bear with me as i'm still learning the nuances of awk...
awk -v PATH="$myvar_path" '{printf( PATH "%s\n",$0)}' mydatafile.dat
i figured out another way too, but a bit more involved
awk '{printf("%s/%s\n","'"${myvar_path}"'",$1)}' mydatafile.dat
this way i was able to insert a / after the value of ${myvar_path}
Thanks again for your time.
