Hi,
I don't know what is wrong, but:
1.- Which file is untitled3.txt?
2.- Try comment a little bit your code to know what you want to do.
3.- Try one awk program instead using several 'sed' & 'awk' commands.
4.- Input file of 'dothis.awk' is 'input.txt' while in the 'awk' program you
search 'texta' and 'textb' fields which are from 'insert.txt' file. Is this
correct?
5.- Paste the output.txt you are looking for.
Regards,
Birei
