Logical AND operation with egrep
Hi All,

I need to perform logical AND operation using UNIX command.
string(space separated) is coming through web. And i dont want to create
files for that. i want to use only source file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
Sam

Tools chained (piped) commands performs AND
file1=
Joe, Linda, Bob, Terry
Kim, Rhonda, Steve, Joy

Code:
cat file1 | grep "Joe" | grep "Linda"

would output that first line of
Joe, Linda, Bob, Terry

Or, are you asking something different? Sometimes easier to understand with examples.

ok here is the example :-

below is the string coming from web application

string="str1 str2 str3"

i want to search a record/records which contain all three string by using source file only. Dont want to create any new file.

important :- string coming through web is space separated.

Tools Are the strings variable?
Or is there something else not immediately clear?

cat file | egrep "str1 str2 str3"

to find all records that have those three entries.

Code:
cat test | egrep "string1 string2 string3"
string1 string2 string3

cat test
string1 string2 string3

That works, I think you need to provide more information.
