Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.

and if i wanted multiple variables?

VAR1=Bob
VAR2=Steve

awk -v VAR1=$VAR1 VAR2=$VAR2 '($3 == VAR1 && $4 == VAR2) { print $1 }' file.txt

I know the '($3 == VAR1 && $4 == VAR2)' bit is right...

Is there a way to compare variables in a 'awk'?
I've been trying for a while and can't figure it out. I'm guessing its not possible :/

VAR=Bob
awk '$3 == $VAR { print $1 }' file.txt

Regards...
