Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Awk: Print Error While Redirecting output in multiple Files Post 302944732 by RudiC on Thursday 21st of May 2015 01:35:53 PM

I think you can redirect printing from awk only once. man mawk:
Quote:
The output of print and printf can be redi‐
rected to a file or command by appending > file, >> file or | command to the end of the print statement.
But you could let the system do the redirection of sort's output for you. Try
Code:
{print counter1","array1[counter1] |"sort > ValFirst_AO.txt" }
