How to grep a string and add to subject line of a mail?

I am running a mailx command as follows in Linux:

Code:
mailx -s "Elapsed Time: " ora_dbas < $RUNDIR/sql_timings.out

I am trying to parse the file "sla_local_sql_timings.out" for the word Elapsed Time: and get the time from that file stored in a variable and display that variable in the subject line of my email. Is this possible at all?


Contents of sql_timing.out looks as below:
Code:
 
46 rows selected.
Elapsed: 00:10:00.10
SQL> 
SQL> spool off
 
46 rows selected.
Elapsed: 00:15:00.10
SQL> 
SQL> spool off

All i am trying to do is take the values "00:10:00.10" and "00:15:00.10" and add it to the subject line.

So the Subject line of my mail should be: Elapsed Time: 00:10:00.10 00:15:00.10


Can someone guide me on how to get this done please? thank you

Mod Comment Please use CODE tags to mark sample code and input and output samples. I guessed at where the CODE tags should go on your sample input and probably guessed incorrectly about where empty lines are supposed to appear.
