I am sorry if I was misleading you.
My question is same right from my first post.

Say my input file is

Quote:
OBJECT TYPE ="abc" UNIQUE_FIELD_ONE=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid
NAME=locale_nl_NL
UNIQUE_FIELD=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid
FIELDS

OBJECT TYPE="XYZ"
NAME=locale_en_CA
UNIQUE_FIELD=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid
FIELDS

OBJECT TYPE="PQRS"
-------
-------
---------
FIELDS
My o/p file look like

Quote:
OBJECT TYPE ="abc" UNIQUE_FIELD_ONE=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid
NAME=locale_nl_NL
UNIQUE_FIELD=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid

OBJECT TYPE="XYZ"
NAME=locale_en_CA
UNIQUE_FIELD=win32_lcid
UNIQUE_FIELD_TWO=win32_lcid
Hope my question is clear now.

Quote:
I want the pattern between the pair "OBJECT" and "FILEDS"(excluding the line "FIELDS")
My second question is
Quote:
How can I remove the use of grep here.

$awk '/OBJECT *TYPE/,/FIELDS/' test.dat|grep -v FIELDS
