Hello phamnu,
Those above commands worked for me successfully, I tried them in bash environment. There are few questions/suggestions here as follows.
i- It is always good to mention your O.S details into post, in case you are on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awkto /usr/xpg4/bin/awk , /usr/xpg6/bin/awk , or nawk.
ii- If it is possible for you to paste sample Input into code tags (you could remove confidential data if any in it).
Let me know if you have any queries on same.
Thanks,
R. Singh
