Reading only first record from the multipe directories
Hi All,

I have a requirement, I had a parent directory Land under that we have sub directories
Yesterday,
Today and
Tommorrow

And we have a file test.txt under the above directories Yesterday, Today and Tommorrow

The data in the file test.txt under Yesterday folder is
Header|2011-12-01
DATA|TOTAL1
DATA|TOTAL2
EOF

The data in the file test.txt under Today folder is
Header|2011-13-01
DATA|TOTAL3
DATA|TOTAL4
EOF

The data in the file test.txt under Tommorrow folder is
Header|2011-14-01
DATA|TOTAL5
DATA|TOTAL6
EOF

I want to get only the 1st records after removing header records from the files like below

DATA|TOTAL1
DATA|TOTAL3
DATA|TOTAL5

I used below command

I used below command awk -F"|" 'BEGIN{IGNORECASE=1;} $1~/DATA/' Land/*/test.txt
I'm getting all the records and the data is as shown below

DATA|TOTAL1
DATA|TOTAL2
DATA|TOTAL3
DATA|TOTAL4
DATA|TOTAL5
DATA|TOTAL6


Thanks,
Raju
