Hi clx
thanks for the reply.
final output file should be as shown below
#----------------------------------------------------------
dataFile
Code:
{
Name shiva;
location Bangalore;
travelID IDNumber;
}

IDNumber 4
(
560065
700007
100001
200002
);

#---------------------------------------------------------

sorry again ... iwant bit more generic way to do it as i will have varying list.
in the above case they are only 4 pin code entries so file will look like
Code:
4
(
111111
222222
333333
4444444
)

if i have 5 pincodes then one more pincode ll be added in the list as
Code:
5
(
111111
222222
333333
4444444
555555
)

so copying IDNumber and pasting before 4 or 5 should be in more generic way

Regards,
linuxUser_

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
