I like it this is much sweeter than my answer, but the way I read it you still need the paste -s. No need for a loop with this. Nice.

Thank you all for your help!

These two command lines "awk '{print $5}' file1 ...... file184>result.txt;paste -s result.txt > a06.txt" give the following output:
c5file1
c5file2
.
.
.
c5file184

which was what I had before

The format should be as "c5file2 c5file2 c5file3....c5file184", i.e. I need the columns to be side by side.
Thanks again!

if you want the columns side by side you can do
Code:
 awk '{printf "%s\t",$0} END '{print}'' file*

Yes, Vidyadhar85. That's exactly the format I am looking format.
file1:
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 0
1 2 3 4 7

file2:
1 8 2 5 6
1 3 6 7 3
4 2 7 4 6

he want final file as:
5 6
0 3
7 6

Thanks!

"' awk '{printf "%s\t",$0} END '{print}'' file* "" This one still does not work.

Thanks!
