Re: awk and date command

[ann kok <annkok2001@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you again

here is expectation output

eg:

awk -v DT=`date +%Y%m%d` program.awk record.txt 

The result is


File No: CGA001
Name: AAA
Country: USA
Created: 20071122
Updated: 20071122


File No: CGA002
Name: BBB
Country: Australia
Created: 20071122
Updated: 20071122


File No: CGA003
Name: CCC
Country: England
Created: 20071122
Updated: 20071122


The program is program.awk

     BEGIN { RS = "\n" ; FS = "|" }

     {
           print "File No:", CGAxxx <=== how to
change?
           print "Name:", $1
           print "Country:", $2
           printf "Created: %s\n", DT
           printf "Updated: %s\n", DT
           print ""
     }


the record.txt is

AAA|USA
BBB|Australia
CCC|England


Thank you
