Hi,
I have a record:
10276386,12/08/07 00:13:27,12/13/07 00:07:58,Closed,AUTO
EVENT,"CENTRAL TWS_JOB_ABEND JOB JMKTIS_3TPEMGR00M_LOAD2_FA_FILE
FAILED, STREAM SMKTIS_TPEMGR01G, NO RECOVERY
SPECIFIED",P3,F1BCSPSMKTORI
the FS for above is "|"
If i want to output this with "|" replaced by "," along with $6 being
quoted, I use the following:
gawk -F\| -v OFS=',' '{gsub(/.*/,"&",$6); print $0>"a"}'
F1BCSRTECRD.txta
The above works fine as expected.
Now if I just try this:
gawk -F\| -v OFS=',' '{print $0>"a"}' F1BCSRTECRD.txta
I am not getting an output whose fields are seperated by "," but they
are instead seperated by existing "|". Can someone please let me know
why this happens.
Thanks,
Prateek
