I have 3 problems.

1)I have to read the 16th column of a record in a comma seperated text file in a shell script . i am trying to use ...

va =( echo $line | awk -F'[.|,]' '{print $16}')

2) I need to create a log and error record for each of the sql commands executed in unix.

3) and i need a unix command to connect to perforce ( version control ssystem) in a shell script and fetch a file from there.

Please help and let me know how can i achieve this.
