Question Passing values out awk.
found that passing (input) values to awk, all work well. For example:
errpt | awk 'BEGIN { errore=0 }
substr($2,1,4) /'ParamData'/ {
....
} ' ParamData=`date +"%m%d"`

Now I wish to obtain (output) a value. Using this method is it possible to re-write ParamData, for example?

Thanks in advance for your kind cooperation.
Regards.
