I mean "last" time would be 11:59PM.

the -k5 and -k3.6 work perfectly.

not sure how the -k3.1n is going to work in that the "first" time would be 12:00AM and the "last" time would be 12:59PM. Doesn't -k3.1n mean first character 0 to...

hpux 11i v2 #!/bin/sh

using the awk line below, why does $total lose it's decimal place and start rounding?????

total=`awk '{ c+=$3 }END{ print c }' test`
