Actually RudiC, now that I read your paraphrase a bit more closely, it is slight off:
Quote:
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.
Everything was correct up until your "AND" statement. The value "503" can be in $22 in any line within the block of text between two "*" where $1,$2 of file1 match $1,$2 in file2.
So for example, above in my example File 1a I had:
In this case $22==503 does not occur on the same line as the match between file 1a and file 2a. Thus, I would need $1,$2 in file 1 to match $1,$2 in file 2 but only between blocks of texts beginning and ending with "*" and one of (any one of) the lines in this block where a match occurs also has $22==503. Hopefully that makes better sense.
Thanks again.

Hello,
I am newbie in awk. I have just started learning it.

The awk below is supposed to count all the matching $5 strings and count how many $7 values is less than 20. I don't think I need the portion in bold as I do not need any decimal point or format, but can not seem to get the correct counts. Thank you :).

combine
COMBINE(1)COMBINE(1)NAME
combine - combine sets of lines from two files using boolean operations
SYNOPSIS
combine file1 and file2
combine file1 not file2
combine file1 or file2
combine file1 xor file2
_ file1 and file2 _
_ file1 not file2 _
_ file1 or file2 _
_ file1 xor file2 _
DESCRIPTION
combine combines the lines in two files. Depending on the boolean operation specified, the contents will be combined in different ways:
and Outputs lines that are in file1 if they are also present in file2.
not Outputs lines that are in file1 but not in file2.
or Outputs lines that are in file1 or file2.
xor Outputs lines that are in either file1 or file2, but not in both files.
"-" can be specified for either file to read stdin for that file.
The input files need not be sorted, and the lines are output in the order they occur in file1 (followed by the order they occur in file2
for the two "or" operations). Bear in mind that this means that the operations are not commutative; "a and b" will not necessarily be the
same as "b and a". To obtain commutative behavior sort and uniq the result.
Note that this program can be installed as "_" to allow for the syntactic sugar shown in the latter half of the synopsis (similar to the
test/[ command). It is not currently installed as "_" by default, but you can alias it to that if you like.
