Full Discussion: Reshaping file via awk
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Reshaping file via awk Post 303001451 by Don Cragun on Thursday 3rd of August 2017 05:30:01 PM
Old 08-03-2017
In the future, please start a new thread to discuss a new problem. For the new problem you posted in post #4, you problems are that:
  1. your 1st assignment to field 7 overwrote the data you are trying to extract in the 2nd call to substr() on that field, (and there is no reason to make any of those assignments), and
  2. you didn't make any attempt to print field 8.
Try this instead:
Code:
awk -F '[;-]' '{print substr($2, 1, 5), $1, $2, $3, substr($4, 2), $5, $6, substr($7, 1, 1), substr($7, 2, 1), $8}' OFS='\t' file
