awk: can't open

Hi Guys,


I was just trying to run a bunch of test scripts which ran perfectly before i changed servers to a different solaris machine. But i just changed it to run on a different solaris version and my awk statement in the script shows an error.


Code:
awk BEGIN{s=ARGV[1]; r=ARGV[2]; \
                delete ARGV[1]; delete ARGV[2]; \
                printf("%-7s%-17s", s, r); } passed (1/1 - 100%)


Code:
awk: can't open passed



The script worked perfectly before and now it gives an error. I tried copying existing awk and using that but still i get the same error. Can anyone give any suggestions on how to go about this problem?

Well, its actually a variable in the script which gets the value of passed or failed.
