Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to find a phrase and pull all lines that follow until the phrase occurs again? Post 302848171 by Scottie1954 on Wednesday 28th of August 2013 04:45:49 PM

Yeah, I've been a bit cryptic with what's in the file as it has mostly confidential data. It would take some effort to redact. Anyway, I've tried both replies here with no luck. The sed suggestion produces a parsing error and the awk returns no data. I'm running /usr/bin/sh on hp-ux.

The number that I want to search between is in the last column of the report header. If I use the following code I can see the numbers change, but I don't know how to grab the lines in between. Thank you.
Code:
grep 'PAGE NO:' reportfile | awk '{ print $NF }'
