yes, thank you frnd,

i have to find string1 inside each iteratiion and if it found then i need to fetch string2 from the location based on the string1's location....
string one can be present more than once too.

does it make any sense frnd?

frnd, (whatever it stands for)
you've been shown a skeleton of a solution by ghostdog74. It's been left to you to take it and enhance it to satisfy your requirements.

awk
Hi,

Pls try below one, i think it is ok for you.

Code:
sed 's/yyy/,/g' filename | awk 'BEGIN{FS=","}
{
for(i=2;i<=NF-1;i++)
print $i
}'

how can i extend the scop of the variable "i"?

cat > tst.txt
"aa bb cc aa dd ee aa bb ff aa gg hh"
^D

v[$i]=`awk 'BEGIN{FS="aa"}
{
for(i=2;i<NF;i++)
{
print $i
