siya,
Your description of what you are trying to do is not at all clear. Looking at the "required result" in message #4 in this thread, I'm guessing that you want to replace PH01 immediately followed by up to four zeros with string. If that is what you want, the following awk script will do that for you:

Code:

awk 'match($1, /^PH010{0,4}/) {
        $1 = "string" substr($1, RLENGTH+1)
}
1' input

If you are using a Solaris/SunOS system, use /usr/xpg4/bin/awk or nawk instead of awk.

If the file input contains the data specified in message #1 in this thread, the output is:

Code:

string0G0240 P.he_genemodel_v1.0 CDS 120721 121773 . - . ID=PH01000000G0240.CDS;Parent=PH01000000G0240
string1G0190 P.he_genemodel_v1.0 mRA 136867 137309 . - . ID=PH01000001G0190.mRNA;Parent=PH01000001G0190
.............................................
string278028G0010 P.he_genemodel_v1.0 CDS 27 501.. . - . ID=PH01278028G0010;Description="oereed"
string278104G0010 P.he_genemodel_v1.0 CDS 34 171 . - . ID=PH01278104G0010.CDS;Parent=PH01278104G0010

which matches what you specified in message #4 in this thread.

set_cdscp_confidence

set cdscp confidence(1m)												  set cdscp confidence(1m)

NAME

       set cdscp confidence - Sets the confidence level of clerk calls issued as a result of CDS control program commands

SYNOPSIS

       cdscp set cdscp confidence = value

ARGUMENTS

       One  of	the following confidence levels:  low, medium, or high.  A low confidence level means the clerk obtains information from caches or
       the most convenient server.  A medium level means the clerk obtains information directly from a	server.  A  high  level  means	the  clerk
       obtains information only at master replicas.  The initial value is medium.

DESCRIPTION

       The set cdscp confidence command sets the confidence level of clerk calls issued as a result of CDS control program commands.  You must use
       this command within the CDS control program.  Exiting from the CDS control program removes the confidence level setting.   You  must  reset
       the confidence level each time you enter the CDS control program.

NOTE

       This command may be replaced in future releases by the dcecp command, and may no longer be supported at that time.

EXAMPLE

       The following command sets the confidence level of clerk calls to high.	$ cdscp cdscp> set cdscp confidence = high

RELATED INFORMATION

       Command: show cdscp confidence(1m)

															  set cdscp confidence(1m)
