Hi,

Please use the following code.



Code:
awk 'NR==4 {print substr($0,15) }' test_data1211


Let us say test_data1211 is the input file.


Thanks,
R. Singh
Code:
NR==4 represents the line#4 and then 
substr($0,15) means we are creating a substring with line 4th from 16th Character.



Hope this helps.


Thanks,
R. Singh
