awk question row into column
I have a csv file: test1.csv with 26 columns

Sample:
Code:
Data collected Comp1,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Average
Number of Arrivals with non Zero,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...,0
%Utilization,0.1,0.23,0.14,...,0.36
Data collected Comp2,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Average
Number of Arrivals with non Zero,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...,0
%Utilization,0.1,0.23,0.14,...,0.36

I used:
Code:
awk -F, '{print $1, ","$26}' test1.csv > test2.csv

Output was only 1 line, 1 column:
Data collected Comp1

I'm seriously stumped!


Ultimately I want to get my output file to be:
Code:
                Number Arrivals with non zero    %Utilization
Comp1      Average                                     Average
Comp2      Average                                     Average

Your input file only has 26 columns on lines 1 and 4

I was just lazy with the post...I resolved my issue, although I still don't know what was the root cause.

I think my issue what that I saved the file in csv format in excel. Once I reopened/resaved the file in text edit and ran the script it was ok.
