Full Discussion: Format the Output

Well i think i should have explained more. The above code checks only for the START/END pattern. But the pattern prior is also important.

In the below case the awk will not return any rows. But it should have thrown as

ABC;START
BHY;START

Input

Code:
ABC;START
TTT;END
BHY;START
TTT;END


For every column1 ( ex: ABC ) there should be a START line and an END line ( END line need not necessary be the next line of START ) . If we dont have a END line for the column1 then we need to print that column1 (or the entire START line). Hope this explains.

Thanks for your inputs.
