Hi Jamie,

Your time variable should get passed correctly but your 'test' conditions may produce unexpected results as the time variable is treated as 'text' and using <,> operators on it may not give what you expect.

...and just to confirm that your time variable is passed correctly, put a "print time" statement in your awk script.

Hai Jamie,

Started to play with awk right now. If you get your problem solved, treat responders with points to get more informations in near future and get good interaction.

Best wishes.
Muthukumar.
