Hello alister,

Thanks for anwer and link shared. I see about the escape sequences in that link for a regexp constant.

I haven't put any escape to the "|" because awk understand it as literal "|", but I don't know why continues falin the code below.

Code:
awk '
BEGIN {
X="5|35|998367383|5|3||,7|44|783738002|3|55|JK|,97|16|3337128943"
Y="|87|50|2|,8,3,32,0,1,0,1,7,8,9,2,2,3"
Z=X "(15|20|45|70)" Y
}
$0 !~ Z {print}' input.txt

Is not possible because the string contains "|" or what is wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Regards
