Please Read REBORG
Reborg,

Sorry to bother you. I have tried the code you suggested and it's not creating new files after they satisfy the criteria. If any of the files don't satisfy the criteria it should not create the files at all. Please see my output below.

CARE01_DLY_AUS_20060723 CARE01_DLY_MKT_20060723
+ awk {data[NR] = $0; out=FILENAME "new"; file[NR]=out;} END { if ( FNR
- 2 != $1) { print "error" ; exit 1 } if ( ARGIND == --ARGC ){ for ( i=2
; i < NR; i++ ) { print data[i] > file[i] } close(file[i])}}

Satya,

I see that in your script you are using ARGIND and ARGC which are specific to nawk and gawk languages and it will not work for you if they are not installed on your system. Other than that I think Reborg should help you with the code he wrote.

Thanks

Thanks Sravan.

Reborg,

I don't have either nawk or gawk installed and hence the script is not working as desired. Is think there is a way to solve this as we got the incorrect output before? Kindly suggest.

I am just getting the name of the files when I run the script. So please help.

Code:

Quote:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
dat='/biddf/ab6498/dev/ctl'
cd $dat
files=CARE01_DLY_???_`date '+%Y%m%d'`


awk '{data[NR] = $0; out=FILENAME "new"; file[NR]=out;} END { if ( FNR - 2 != $1) { print "error" ; exit 1 } if ( ARGIND == --ARGC ){ for ( i=2 ; i < NR; i++ ) { print data[i] > file[i] } close(file[i])}}' $files

Can you post the output of

uname -a again, I think it was HPUX, but am not certain.

Reborg,

Here is the output of uname -a

HP-UX drwatson B.11.00 B 9000/800 615399343 16-user license

That's what I though, HPUX replaced both awk and nawk with a new version of awk in 11.

This may work, but I don't have a HPUX machine, and don't know exactly how HPUX awk will behave.

Code:
awk '{data[NR] = $0; out=FILENAME "new"; file[NR]=out; records[out]=NR } END { for ( r in records ) { sum += data[records[r]]; print sum } print ARGC, NR, NR - (--ARGC * 2);  if ( sum != NR - (ARGC * 2) ) { print "error" } else {for ( i=2; i < NR; i++ ) { print data[i] > file[i] } close(file[i])}}' $files

Reborg,

I really salute your skills. Let me give it a try. I will revert back with results.
