Thank you for your reply. can you provide me some examples of the loop? I try to do it but it displays all the dates.

Code:
for i in 1.....10
do
datebk=onstat -g arc|awk '{print $4}'
echo $datebk
echo
done

the output of onstat -g arc|awk '{print $4}' is the whole output, i want to manipulate the output on a per row basis.
