Hi,

I think I have a similar problem with this.

#cat /data/pinpe.csv_20070731 | nawk -v FS=, '{print $1','$18','$22','$26}' | grep -w 100 | grep -w 1 | nawk '{print $4}'

Below is the output:

2009-06-16
2009-01-29
2009-06-02
2008-03-05
2007-08-05
2007-09-24

2007-10-13

Now my dilemma is I want to filter this ouput by my preferred dates. I wanted it to output the date from yesterday and backwards. In other words I want to filter all the dates less than today's date (i.e. 2007-07-30, 2007-07-29, 2007-07-28, etc. and below). And finally count the number of lines for the final output.

Tnx in advance. Smilie

Br, Pete
