Thanks much for the reply!!

The solution you have provided in your post did not really work.

When I run the command it is returning lots of rows with passed and failed, when there are two rows with ~ZZ~, the data I am interested in.
that's kin of strange - works just fine here. If you want you can post your sample file.
