Extract multiple line text from log between special words
Hi all,
I have a text file (log), it prints some SQL statements in the log. It is a bit irregular, I need to extract SQL statement into as separate file.
1. Some statements are printed as just SQL statements, in multiple lines.
2. Some SQL statements are printed line by line but after log details at the beginning of the line. So somehow I need to ignore the first part of the line but need to keep query.
What I found as a pattern is, all SQL statements have "DISTINCT" keyword in the beginning
and after each statement there are "quit;" statements.
This doesn't have to be at the beginning of the lines, it's enough for me to extract text between DISTINCT and quit.
This is where I confused and couldn't find a way to solve it with sed or awk.

Hi Guys,
Can someone help me with a way to extract text between two words on a single line.
For example if the file has below content I want to extract all text between b and f inclusive of b and f. Aparently sed does this but does it line by line and I guess it cannot read word by word.

The file contains one line of text followed by a number. I want to take the number X at the end, take it out and display the last X words. X is the key telling me how many words from the end that I want and X will always be less than the number of words, so no problem there.
