How to get the exact word in awk?
Hi,

i have a file that contains the following:
Code:
ARTPRD01_app =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 11.222.3.4)(PORT = 1540))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = artprd01.com)
ARTPRD01 =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 11.223.3.1)(PORT = 1540))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = artprd01..com

when i type in the awk command

Code:
awk '/^ARTPRD01/,/SERVICE_NAME/' tnsnames.dat

This gives me an output same as mentioned above. my desired output should only be:

Code:
ARTPRD01 =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 11.223.3.1)(PORT = 1540))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = artprd01..com
