You can combine them certainly:

Code:
awk '($9 >= 11) && !/-OLDISSUES/ { ...}'

I can fill things out in more detail if you explain what this does, I'm unfamiliar with this syntax:
Code:
${AWK} "/${MONTH} ${DAY} ${TIMEH}:.*:.*/,0"

thanks for responding. field three is actually in epoch time, but when you run the
Code:
"'{$3=strftime("%a %b %d %T %Y,%s",$3)}1' OFS=, "

on it, it translate it into what is shown above.

the
Code:
${AWK} "/${MONTH} ${DAY} ${TIMEH}:.*:.*/,0"

is to print all lines it finds under the first line that matches "MONTH DAY TIME". for instance, "Mar 19 18:.*:.*".

my problem is that the number of fields in each line in the datafile changes depending on a number.

so while the awk is printing all lines it finds under "Mar 19 18:", i want it to also run condition check. so for each line, i want to do something like this: "if field 9 of this line i'm currently reading is greater than 11", then print this, else, print this." this is where i get lost.

prima::calendar

Prima::Calendar(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					Prima::Calendar(3)

NAME

       Prima::Calendar - standard calendar widget

SYNOPSIS

	       use Prima::Calendar;
	       my $cal = Prima::Calendar-> create(
		       useLocale => 1,
		       onChange  => sub {
			       print $_[0]-> date_as_string, "
";
		       },
	       );
	       $cal-> date_from_time( localtime );
	       $cal-> month( 5);

DESCRIPTION

       Provides interactive selection of date between 1900 and 2099 years.  The main property, date, is a three-integer array, day, month, and
       year, in the format of perl localtime ( see "localtime" in perlfunc ) - day can be in range from 1 to 31,month from 0 to 11, year from 0 to
       199.

API

   Events
       Change
	   Called when the date property is changed.

   Properties
       date DAY, MONTH, YEAR
	   Accepts three integers in format of "localtime".  DAY can be from 1 to 31, MONTH from 0 to 11, YEAR from 0 to 199.

	   Default value: today's date.

       day INTEGER
	   Selects the day in month.

       firstDayOfWeek INTEGER
	   Selects the first day of week, an integer between 0 and 6, where 0 is Sunday is the first day, 1 is Monday etc.

	   Default value: 0

       month
	   Selects the month.

       useLocale BOOLEAN
	   If 1, the locale-specific names of months and days of week are used.  These are read by calling "POSIX::strftime". If invocation of
	   POSIX module fails, the property is automatically assigned to 0.

	   If 0, the English names of months and days of week are used.

	   Default value: 1

	   See also: date_as_string

       year
	   Selects the year.

   Methods
       can_use_locale
	   Returns boolean value, whether the locale information can be retrieved by calling "strftime".

       month2str MONTH
	   Returns MONTH name according to useLocale value.

       make_months
	   Returns array of 12 month names according to useLocale value.

       day_of_week DAY, MONTH, YEAR, [ USE_FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK = 1 ]
	   Returns integer value, from 0 to 6, of the day of week on DAY, MONTH, YEAR date. If boolean USE_FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK is set, the value of
	   "firstDayOfWeek" property is taken into the account, so 0 is a Sunday shifted forward by "firstDayOfWeek" days.

	   The switch from Julian to Gregorian calendar is ignored.

       date_as_string [ DAY, MONTH, YEAR ]
	   Returns string representation of date on DAY, MONTH, YEAR according to useLocale property value.

       date_from_time SEC, MIN, HOUR, M_DAY, MONTH, YEAR, ...
	   Copies date from "localtime" or "gmtime" result. This helper method allows the following syntax:

		   $calendar-> date_from_time( localtime( time));
