Hello Corona688,

Apologies for not being clear as I have copy and pasted HTML table in code tags but it was not shown as a table, finally ended up with writing a small awk to shown up following.

Code:

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
|TEST | TEST_1 | TEST_2_   | TEST_3 | TEST_4 | TEST_5_TES_TEST_TEST_TEST_TEST_TEST_TEST_TEST|
|     |        |AGAIN_TEST |        |        |                                              |
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

So as you could see 3rd column whose value is TEST_2_AGAIN_TEST was previously not coming on same line, in a single row. So I have done 2 things.

i- Have changed the largest column(last column here) values(because of which other columns were getting shrink) I have put it's values separated by space so in html it not increase it's(column's) width it will print then as follows to it.

Code:

 _____________________________________________________________________________________________
|TEST | TEST_1 | TEST_2_ AGAIN_TEST  | TEST_3 | TEST_4 | TEST|
|     |        |                     |        |        | 5   |
|     |        |                     |        |        |TEST |
                                                         .
                                                         .
                                                         .
                                                         so on to all values.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

ii- Second thing I have done it I had increased the heading(means summary of shrink 3rd column) so by doing these 2 steps it is not shrinking the columns now.

Thanks,
R. Singh

colrm

COLRM(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						  COLRM(1)

NAME

     colrm -- remove columns from a file

SYNOPSIS

     colrm [start [stop]]

DESCRIPTION

     The colrm utility removes selected columns from the lines of a file.  A column is defined as a single character in a line.  Input is read
     from the standard input.  Output is written to the standard output.

     If only the start column is specified, columns numbered less than the start column will be written.  If both start and stop columns are spec-
     ified, columns numbered less than the start column or greater than the stop column will be written.  Column numbering starts with one, not
     zero.

     Tab characters increment the column count to the next multiple of eight.  Backspace characters decrement the column count by one.

ENVIRONMENT

     The LANG, LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE environment variables affect the execution of colrm as described in environ(7).

EXIT STATUS

     The colrm utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

SEE ALSO

     awk(1), column(1), cut(1), paste(1)

HISTORY

     The colrm command appeared in 3.0BSD.
