IF awk in a while read line-loop
Hi

As a newbe in scripting, i struggle hard with my first script.
What i want to do is, bringing data of two files together.



file1:
Code:
....
05/14/12-04:00:00 41253 4259 5135 5604 5812 5372 
05/14/12-04:10:00 53408 5501 6592 7402 7354 6639 
05/14/12-04:20:00 58748 6037 7292 8223 8357 7492 
05/14/12-04:30:00 57192 7824 7987 7235 
05/14/12-04:40:00 56901 5585 6721 7684 7839 7166 
05/14/12-05:00:00 45642 4361 5049 5593 5684 5467 
....

lag --> .. missing the data from 04:50
file1 has sometimes breaks [datalags] and the lag should be pastet free.

file2:
Code:
....
05/14/12-04:00 4.04 191.22
05/14/12-04:10 4.36 200.91
05/14/12-04:20 3.55 206.60
05/14/12-04:30 2.85 213.91
05/14/12-04:40 2.23 213.21
05/14/12-04:50 1.82 224.51
05/14/12-05:00 2.04 262.31
....


my idea was ...
comparing the timestamp TS1={date=$1 and time=$2 of file1} with the timestamp of file2 TS2.
And if TS1 == TS2, then the awk-specified values of file1 should be pastet line by line at file2 > file3

The result should be
Code:
....
05/14/12-04:00 4.04 191.22 41253 4259 5135 5604 5812 5372 
05/14/12-04:10 4.36 200.91 53408 5501 6592 7402 7354 6639 
05/14/12-04:20 3.55 206.60 58748 6037 7292 8223 8357 7492 
05/14/12-04:30 2.85 213.91 57192 7824 7987 7235 
05/14/12-04:40 2.23 213.21 56901 5585 6721 7684 7839 7166 
05/14/12-04:50 1.82 224.51 
05/14/12-05:00 2.04 262.31 45642 4361 5049 5593 5684 5467 
 
....

Code:
 
 
while read line
do
UDaps=`echo $line | awk -F'-' '{print $1}'`
UZaps=`echo $line | awk -v 'FS=-\"?|\"? \"?|\"?$' '{print $2}'`
TS2="$UDaps " " $UZaps" 
 
...??
done < $Home/METE/file2.txt

i try to solve it with "while read line" and check $TS2.
Next step; i want to check the $TS1 --> then compare it with $TS2.
IF it is equal, paste the awk specified values line by line.
Can you please help me?

Thanks in advance!
Ralf
