Question egrep
i am new to bash or scripting period and had a question about how I could use the egrep command (or if there should be another command to use) to accomplish the following goal. Need to look through the ndm files labeled as S20090709.999 and if I cannot find a specific date then search the archived ndm files labeled as STATARCH-20090822-20090822.Z. I have this much coded all ready but do not know how to incorporate the archived files into this. any help would be greatly appreciated.


Code:
#!/bin/bash

clear

echo "Please enter the date for CD info wanted in YYMMDD format  \c"
read rrd_date

echo "Please enter CEC CEM or CEP: \c"
read file_name

sleep 2

# Create the output file with CEC CEP or CEM information

echo "Creating $file_name file"

cd /opt/cdunix/work/vcndm

sleep 2

grep $file_name S2*$rrd_date.* >~/rrd$rrd_date$file_name

sleep 2

FILE=~/rrd$rrd_date$file_name

echo $FILE

FS="|"

while read line

do
        # store field 1
        F1=$(echo $line | cut -d$FS -f1)
        echo "$F1" >>~/cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name
        # store field 2
        F2=$(echo $line | cut -d$FS -f2)
        echo "$F2" >>~/cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name
        # store field 18
        F18=$(echo $line | cut -d$FS -f18)
        echo "$F18" >>~/cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name
        # store field 19
        F19=$(echo $line | cut -d$FS -f19)
        echo "$F19" >>~/cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name
        echo " " >>~/cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name
done < $FILE

echo "cdrrdout$rrd_date$file_name has been created"

rm ~/rrd$rrd_date$file_name

exit
fI

I didn't answer your question... just reposted your code so I wouldn't get vertigo while reading it.

It's obvious that parts of your script did not paste correctly:

z.B.
Code:
F18=$(echo $line

should be, perhaps something like:
Code:
F18=$(echo $line | awk '{print $18}')

Hi freddie , it does n't make sense to say like that , as you said in your previous post "you will fix that by your self" might be the reason , no one touched this post.

clearly mention the output your expecting/problem your facing , so u can get response.
