Thanks a lot it works well, the second script in your first post is great too. i will calculate the results with another awk that i wrote (i wish i could write such long lovely scripts like yours Smilie )

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
ls -l | awk '/^-/ {total+=$5} END {printf "%s %15d\n",d, total}' d="$(date '+%b %d')" >> vv.txt

awk '{a+=$3}END{print a}' vv.txt

regards

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
