[NFC773L2] Yes 07/24/11
[NFC784L2] Yes 07/24/11
[NFC787L2] Yes 07/31/11

I want to replace them as
NFC774L2 Yes 07/30/11
NFC773L2 Yes 07/24/11
NFC784L2 Yes 07/24/11
NFC787L2 Yes 07/31/11

I want to remove the [ ]'s kindly assist how I do the same via shell script.

Hi:

You will need to escape the opening and closing bracket character:

# sed -e 's/\[//' -e 's/\]//' file
