=>Hi Steven! You are right about sed - it is a wonderful program, but

=> foo='UCD-SNMP-MIB::ucdavis.55.101.1 = STRING: "CRITICAL emcpowera, 2 dead, 2 alive, possible LUN tresspass or HBA failure"'
=> echo ${foo#*STRING:}
=>works as Tom wants. I don't quite understand this, but it is interesting

=>where I can read more!
