I used the below code:

Code:

echo $today $job_start_date | awk '
BEGIN {
        d[1]= 31
        d[2]= 28
        d[3]= 31
        d[4]= 30
        d[5]= 31
        d[6]= 30
        d[7]= 31
        d[8]= 31
        d[9]= 30
        d[10]= 31
        d[11]= 30
        d[12]= 31
}
{
        yr=substr($1,7,2); mon=substr($1,1,2); day=substr($1,4,2)
        yr1=substr($2,7,2); mon1=substr($2,1,2);day1=substr($2,4,2)
        if((yr % 4 ==0 && yr % 100 !=0) || yr % 400 ==0) { d["02"] = 29;}
        if ((yr1 - yr)==0 && (mon1-mon)==0 && (day1-day)==0)
        {
        echo $job_start_time
#       st_time=$((`echo $job_start_time|sed 's/.//g'`))
#       echo $st_time
                }
}'

Got the below error when running:

Code:

./BS 07/10/2012
awk: Field $() is not correct.
 The input line number is 1.
 The source line number is 24.
    Rockport|22:00|  PDWRCK01|07/10/2012|  22.00.16|
         WIM|00:05|  PDWIM000|07/11/2012|  00.05.01|

I got the job_start_time from the logs and I can post the complete code, if you want.
