awk command to search based on 5 user input fields
USER INPUT UP TO 5 FIELDS
INPUT FILE (Rodney.outD):
Basically what I need is a way to front load each of the 5 fields with a value that will act like a pass thru value on my awk statement. This way I can use the same "==" operator regardless of what the user inputs.
Thanks in advance.
