Hello Radoulov,

I have tested, yes {3,} didnt work for me, however when i tried
Code:
/\.[0-9][0-9][0-9]+/

it worked.

And let me share the result (i know it is not the optimum code but works pretty fine):

Code:
for file in `find . -type f -name "*.txt" -mtime -30 2>/dev/null`;
do nawk -F\| '{split($NF,arr,":"); if ((arr[2+0]~/\.[0-9][0-9][0-9]+/) || (arr[3+0]~/\.[0-9][0-9][0-9]+/)) print $0}' OFS="|" $file;
done

Thanks for your helps all!

BR

The above switches (--posix and --re-interval)are supported by GNU awk only, it seems that you're using nawk.
On Solaris the POSIX awk supports re-interval by default:
Code:
bash-2.03$ echo 11 | nawk '/1{1,}/'
bash-2.03$ echo 11 | /usr/xpg4/bin/awk '/1{1,}/'
11
