Thanks for explaining that, makes more sense now I see it talked through! I have been running this for a couple of days to check the results and noticed that I have oversimplified the path names when I originally phrased the question. The result is that full path names are not printed and likewise all versions of certain models are being printed.
*hangs head in shame*
Thats clearly my fault for incorrectly phrasing the question. For the task as described the command worked as required
Here are the differences with filenames:
1. The end of the filename is _Software.bak (This never changes)
//servername.com/version/panasonic2,6_3.0.4 (What I originally posted) //servername.com/panasonic3/version/panasonic2,6_3.0.4_Software.bak (What the file path actually is)
2. Some of the folders contain part of the software version in a higher folder (panasonic3 or pan6 for example). This means a comparison based on anything before the first _ will not show these two results as unique when in actual fact one is to be printed and the other discarded.
I have an input file. Each line in it has several characters. If the first three characters of the line is '000' or '001' or '002' or '003', I need to print it in output. How can I do this in awk.
I am able to do if the search string is only one (let us say 000).

awk -F'\t' '{if ($6 > a)a=$6}END{for (i in a) print i"\t"a}'
