Can you please do me favor and let me know if I can go further and try
for
advanced search like finding how many rows inside a file have data that does not start with a zero after the third comma ?
Something like: awk -F, ' { print $4 } ' | grep -v "^0" | wc -l Use one command at a time to see how they work with each other (you might have to modify the grep a bit)...
*sigh*
Drive me crazy, why use multiple commands?
awk -F 'BEGIN { FS = ","; }{if ( $3 !~ /^0 ) { count++; }} END { print count }' filename

Sorry . I tried for your proposed procedure , as the followings : #awk -F 'BEGIN { FS = ","; }{if ( $3 !~ /^0 ) { count++; }} END { print count }' HLRSubscriber-20091111173349.csv But my CentOS server didn't return to the prompt . Can you please let me know why it is in an end-less iterated loop ? Thank you in advance
