var3=0,0,0,1
var4=0,0,0,1


len=`echo $var1 | awk -F '[,]' '{print ...

So the number of values in the variables may not be the same always. So should I can calculate the length first and use that in the code. This example has 3 for each variable.. but it could be 2 or...

sorry i meant the number of variable value in each variable will always be the same. if var1 has 3 comma separated values so will var2 and var 3.

Hi,

I have a script that is looking for Files with a previous Year-month format. example if the script runs anyday in Oct2011 it has to look for Sept2011 files.
it looks for FILENMAE_201109.TXT....

Thanks!

Also i could understand the code. hope i am right.

Look for pattern date. define an array and store the whole row in it.
n=NR - record number
If pattern is TEST and NR=7 print the array.

Thank you radoulov and rahul for your response.

I tried your script radoulov and it works just perfect.. onlt thing is i dont have he date as the first field so i removed the ^ in the pattern.
...

here is my script... this gives me all the dates offcourse:
I remove the last few lines and look for date and cleanse based on the data and write it with the filename,
rm 45days_dates.txt
for file...

thank you so much.. i understand it much better now.. however i do have some basic questions..

NR == FNR this condition I am little confused..
While reading the first non-empty input file (NR...

the reason i ask is i must be able to modify it,... what if they want the summary as well i must be able to add those lines with some dummy date or with date blank..

thanks

Her eis the putput i am getting:

FILENAME2 Open 3:45 3:40 218 7 10296 First, Last Date: 09/17/08
FILENAME2 Closed 0:00 0:00 0 1 10296 First, Last Date:...

I have preapred the files exactly as the input files i am using: The ones highlighted are the summary lines. I have about 28 lines in file1 and 142 lines in file2. thanks

file1:
FILENAME1 xxxxx...

thank you .. i tested this code... it working fine but it putting one extra line at the end of each file

FILENAME1 Open xxxx Date: 09/01/08
;
;
;
;
FILENAME2 Open zzzz (no date)
...

sorry..correction ..its 7 lines not 6.

this is clearer i guess:

FILENAME1 XXXXX FOO BAR Date: 09/01/08
FILENAME1 XXXXX FOO BAR Date: 09/02/08
FILENAME2 XXXXX FOO BAR Date: 09/01/08

FILENAME1 Open 3:45 3:43
FILENAME1 Closed 0:00...

The summary line is the same format except that its the last 6 lines of each file.so everytime the filename changes.. the last 6 lines are summary lines and wont have a entry in the first file.
...

yes i removed the summary and the code ran fine, It produces the exact output,. I will have to omit the summary in my extract or this code has to omit the last Total block everytime the filename...

That is indeed correct..however i did some analysis and found that there was a summary record in the input file that was creating one extra Total record in file2!!!!

I will think of a way to...

this script you have me first is giving me what i need

#!/bin/sh
awk 'NR == FNR {
t = $1
sub(/[^ \t]* /, "")
_[t] = $0
next
}
($1 in _ && /Total/ && $0 = $0 FS _[$1]) || 1
