---------- Post updated 08-05-09 at 01:22 AM ---------- Previous update was 08-04-09 at 09:15 AM ----------

actually again i am facing some problem

if am doing like this

Code:
nawk -F":" '{printf("%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-15.15s:%-3.3s:%-19.19s:%-2.2s:%-20.20s:%-15.15s:%-2.2s\n", $1,$2,$3,$4,gsub(/[^0-9]/,"",$5),$6,$7,$8,$9,$10,$11)}' $DIALPBIN/temp1.txt > ${DIALPBIN}/temp2.txt
echo "TRLR|${count1}" >> ${DIALPBIN}/temp2.txt

then the output comes out to be like this

Code:
hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :3              :wn3:dial10             :3
 :syrnypritc          :PALMYRA        :NY
hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :0              :wn3:dial10             :3

hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :0              :wn3:dial10             :3

 :syrnypritc          :ROME           :NY


see the fifth field only 3 has come..



if am using gsub in front of print like:
Code:
nawk -F":" '{gsub(/[^0-9]/,"",$5) ; printf("%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-20.20s:%-15.15s:%-3.3s:%-19.19s:%-2.2s:%-20.20s:%-15.15s:%-2.2s\n", $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10,$11)}' $DIALPBIN/temp1.txt > ${DIALPBIN}/temp2.txt
echo "TRLR|${count1}" >> ${DIALPBIN}/temp2.txt

then i am getting the file like this
Code:
hyperarc  199.37.175.53  hyperarc 199.37.175.53 315479980 3 dial10 3
hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :315479980     :wn3:dial10             :3
 :syrnypritc          :PALMYRA        :NY
hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :hyperarc            :199.37.175.53       :9074516030     :wn3:dial10             :3
