Extract multiple xml tag value into CSV format
Hi All,

Need your assistance on another xml tag related issue. I have a xml file as below:
HTML Code:
<INVOICES>
<INVOICE>
<BILL>
<BILL_NO>1234</BILL_NO>
<BILL_DATE>01 JAN 2011</BILL_DATE>
</BILL>
<NAMEINFO>
<NAME>ABC</NAME>
</NAMEINFO>
</INVOICE>
<INVOICE>
<BILL>
<BILL_NO>5678</BILL_NO>
<BILL_DATE>01 JAN 2011</BILL_DATE>
</BILL>
<NAMEINFO>
<NAME>BCA</NAME>
</NAMEINFO>
</INVOICE>
<INVOICE>
<BILL>
<BILL_NO>1256</BILL_NO>
<BILL_DATE>01 JAN 2011</BILL_DATE>
</BILL>
<NAMEINFO>
<NAME></NAME>
</NAMEINFO>
</INVOICE>
<INVOICE>
<BILL>
<BILL_NO>345</BILL_NO>
<BILL_DATE>01 JAN 2011</BILL_DATE>
</BILL>
<NAMEINFO>
<NAME/>
</NAMEINFO>
</INVOICE>
<INVOICE>
<BILL>
<BILL_NO>8934</BILL_NO>
<BILL_DATE>01 JAN 2011</BILL_DATE>
</BILL>
<NAMEINFO>
<NAME>PKL</NAME>
</NAMEINFO>
</INVOICE>
</INVOICES>

HTML Code:

Hi Yinyuemi,

I tried your code but I am not sure where do I need to put in the file name. Another point is that I am using it in HP Unix.

Thanks

Hi Yinyuemi,

I tried and got the following error:

Code:
syntax error The source line is 1.
 The error context is
                /BILL_NO/{printf $3}/NAME\>/{print >>>  NF== <<<
 awk: The statement cannot be correctly parsed.
 The source line is 1.

how about this?

Code:
awk -F'>|<' '/BILL_NO/{printf $3}/NAME\>/{if(NF==3) {print ",NA"} else{print ","$3}}' file

or:
Code:
awk -F'>|<' '/BILL_NO/{printf $3}/NAME\>/{if($2~/\//) {print ",NA"} else{print ","$3}}' file

Hi Yinyuemi,

Both the modifed code is giving output without any error except the text NA is not appearing for two bills.

Code:
awk -F'>|<' '/BILL_NO/{printf $3}/NAME\>/{if(NF==3) {print ",NA"} else{print ","$3}}' myfile

The out put is :

Code:
1234,ABC
5678,BCA
1256,
3458934,PKL

The expected was:

Code:
1234,ABC
5678,BCA
1256,NA
345,NA
8934,PKL

If you notice the xml file, you will see that for bill number 1256 the name tag is "<NAME></NAME>" whereas for bill number 345 it is "<NAME/>"
