Illegal Statement at source line 2

Hello

I'm pretty new to Shell Programming and I'm trying to write a script to display the out of a file displaying licence-use for an application. I've piped the output of my licence-use query to a file. On this file I am trying to run the following awk file, but I keep getting the error:

bash-3.00$ nawk -f ~/viewlicences.awk ~/licences

nawk: syntax error at source line 2
context is
if ($0 /Users of >>> SYNERGY-CMBase/) <<<
nawk: illegal statement at source line 2


This is my awk script that I'm trying to run on the file:

1 {
2 if ($0 [/Users of SYNERGY-CMBase/])
3 {
4 while ("x" == "x")
5 {
6 getline var
7 if (var == "") { continue }
8 if (var != /Users of SYNERGY-GroupSecurity/) { print var } else { exit }
9 }
10 }
11 }


I'm basically trying to capture output between the line which which says "Users of SYNERGY-CMBase" and Users of "SYNERGY-GroupSecurity".

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Smilie
