please use [/CODE] after [CODE] and give the actual output and the desired output.
And don't forget a sample of the input file.

If there is not too much values you can use
Code:
for i in $(grep 'ORA-' /opt/gppeup/gpp/log/paypluserrors.log |   awk '{print $2}' | awk -F';' '{print $2}'); do echo $i; done

But give a sample of the input file so we can change the original line to do the job.
