SQL_STMT do_sql_update: cmd="update account_t set poid_rev = poid_rev + 1, mod_t = :mod_t, currency=:currency, account_no=:account_no

Thanks in advance.
What about mod_t? That is not a table name so the criteria for deciding what is a table name needs to be clearly defined.

Give this a try:

Code:
awk '
{ for(i=1;i<=NF;i++) {
    if($i ~ /into|from|"update/) { 
      print $(i+1)
    }
  }
}' file

If you get errors, use gwk, nawk or /usr/xpg4/bin/awk on Solaris.
