Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers (g)awk: Matching strings from one file in another file between two strings Post 303028013 by RudiC on Saturday 29th of December 2018 05:01:51 PM

Let me try to paraphrase your request: In file2, "blocks" (or "records"?) are delimited by a leading and a trailing * line. Whenever a block has a line whose $1,$2 matches any $1,$2 in file1, AND its $22 is "503", then print the block.
This is untested, as I'm on a windows PC. Try


Code:
awk '
NR==FNR   {T[$1,$2]
           next
          }
/^ *\*/   {if (!STARONE)    {STARONE = 1
                             BUF = $0
                            }
           else             {if (PRT)   {print BUF
                                         print
                                        }
                             STARONE = PRT = 0
                            }
           next
          }
          {BUF = BUF ORS $0
           if (($1,$2) in T) && ($22 == 503)) PRT = 1
          }
 ' file1 file2

and report back.

mv(1)							      General Commands Manual							     mv(1)

Name
       mv - move or rename files

Syntax
       mv [-i] [-f] [-] file1 file2

       mv [-i] [-f] [-] file... directory

Description
       The command moves (changes the name of) file1 to file2.

       If  file2  already  exists,  it is removed before file1 is moved.  If file2 has a mode which forbids writing, prints the mode and reads the
       standard input to obtain a line.  If the line begins with y, the move takes place.  If it does not, exits.  For further information, see

       In the second form, one or more files (plain files or directories) are moved to the directory with their original file-names.

       The command refuses to move a file onto itself.

Options
       -		   Interprets all following arguments as file names to allow file names starting with a minus.

       -f		   Force. This option overrides any mode restrictions or the -i switch.

       -i		   Interactive mode.  If a move is to supersede an existing file, the system prompts youw with the name of the	file  fol-
			   lowed  by  a question mark.	If you type a string that begins with y, the move occurs.  If you type any other response,
			   the move does not occur.

Restrictions
       If file1 and file2 lie on different file systems, must copy the file and delete the original.  In this case the owner name becomes that	of
       the copying process and any linking relationship with other files is lost.
