The { print $0 } is redundant if all you want is print $0. That's what happens by default given no code block.

Also, if you have -v, that's a safer and simpler way to get variables into awk:

Code:
awk -v MIN=1 -v MAX=9 '($2 >= MIN)&&($2 <= MAX)'

Thank you very much. This is the framework I needed.
