Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Shell script to get one column value(s) Post 302967407 by Scrutinizer on Tuesday 23rd of February 2016 11:49:10 AM

Small change to RudiC's suggestion, otherwise it will not work...
Code:
awk -F'[ \t]*[|][ \t]*' -v SL=${variable_name} '$1 == SL {print $2}' file

Or you could try this:
Code:
while IFS="|$IFS" read colA colB
do 
  if [ "$colA" =  "$variable_name" ]; then
    echo "$colB"
  fi
done < file
