You seem to have mistyped Yogesh's sed command. Try to copy+paste it so you get it exactly.

If you want to use AWK code :

awk '/Hello/{getline;print}' filename.

But I wonder whether getline would work in SUN-Solaris....
Can you tell the forum which version u are using....I will try to search out....

Or like this.

Code:
awk '/Hello/ { p=3; next } p { p--; print }' filename

Or this:

Code:
nawk '_&&_--;/Hello/{_=3}' file

Here is the command using sed for above output

sed -n '/Hello/{n;N;N;p;}' filename

Yes,
the only problem is when you want to print the 42th line for instance Smilie
