It is always helpful to carefully and detailedly phrase a request, and to support it with system info like OS and shell, related environment (variables, options), preferred tools, adequate (representative) sample input and desired output data and the logics connecting the two including your own attempts at a solution, and, if existent, system (error) messages verbatim, to avoid ambiguities and keep people from guessing.
I really believe i provided more than adequate information.

os: all unix oses. linux, sunos, ubuntu, aix
shell: /bin/sh

my apologies for the inconvenience.
