Thanks PHV for the solution. The s! was giving me some problem so I modified it and added \s to remove the spaces before aaa. tr ';\n' '\n;' <FILE | sed '/^;*\s*aaa /s/ ccc ddd$' | tr '\n;' ';\n'

Hi PHV, No, I don't want any other lines that begins with non-"aaa" to change. For example: basas sdsa asda ccc ddd; should not change. Just to simplify my test case: aaa 111 222 ccc ddd; aaa dfg dffd dfdfd sdfdsf dfdf dfd fdgdfg dfgdg dfgd dgfd gdgdf fdsfs ccc ddd; basas sdsa asda ccc...

Thanks but I also want: from: aaa dfg dffd dfdfd sdfdsf dfdf dfd fdgdfg dfgdg dfgd dgfd gdgdf fdsfs ccc ddd; to: aaa dfg dffd dfdfd sdfdsf dfdf dfd fdgdfg dfgdg dfgd dgfd gdgdf fdsfs; Any help?

Thanks PHV and p5wizard for the replies but I also want: from: aaa dfg dffd dfdfd sdfdsf dfdf dfd fdgdfg dfgdg dfgd dgfd gdgdf fdsfs ccc ddd; to: aaa dfg dffd dfdfd sdfdsf dfdf dfd fdgdfg dfgdg dfgd dgfd gdgdf fdsfs; Any help?

Hi, I would like to search between "aaa" and ";" for "ccc ddd" and replace it with a blank. To me, each "line" of interest begins with "aaa" and ends with a semicolon ";". For example, aaa 111 222 ccc ddd; sdfs fdd ccc ddd; sfsdf dfdf fdf dfff dfsdfs fdfd; aaa dfg ccc ccc ddd; aaa ddd ccc ccc...

Sorry for the confusion. I had a typo in my example. No, not remove the last 2 fields of every line that ends with a semicolon. I want to search between "aaa" and ";" for "ccc ddd" and replace it with blank. I corrected and here's another test case: aaa 111 222 ccc ddd; sdfs fdd ccc ddd...

Well, I just figured out how to do it with sed. sed '/aaa/s/ ccc ccc;/;/g' FILE but i have a more complicated case like this: aaa bbb 222 333 444 eee ccc ddd; eee ccc ddd; I want it to be: aaa bbb 222 333 444 eee; eee ccc ddd; which means a line always end with a semicolon ";"...

Hi, I have a file looks like this: aaa bbb ccc ddd; 123 321 423 444; aaa eee ccc ddd; aaa fff ccc ddd; 12243455465467; I want the output to look like this: aaa bbb; 123 321 423 444; aaa eee; aaa fff; 12243455465467; Basically, just remove the last 2 entries of the lines begin with "aaa" but...

Thank you so much. That's exactly what I wanted. Really appreaciate your help.

Thank again for the solution and detail explanation. Perhaps the previous testcase isn't a good one. Here's what I really want. === Input file === 123 45676 677 par123.123 sfsf sf dsfsd sfd s wefrewr23 23432 53 65 5 dgasgd.4354ssd sdfs{#$%$#%$%!!!@ et g trhrt werd wewete 24356 655b56 fg d...

Actually, I am intending to filter out those Parxxx with line length > 1. set length [llength $line] if {$length==1} { set result [regexp {(^Par\d+)} $line match fname] if {$result==1} { #open output_file #set file_opened to 1 ... ... .. so if the paragraph starts with "Par123 sas...

By the way, assuming some of the lines ($line) consist of special characters like "} % #..", what can be done to ignore those special characters in $line?

Excellent! You deserve a star from me, mikrom.

Thanks but there is a problem if the merge_file.txt does not begin with "Par". It would error out "can't read "output_file": no such variable.

Thank you guys. I never knew the usage of -A and -B. This is perfect.

Hi guys, I would like to print the line before and the line after "JohnDoe" is found. For example, ===Input text file=== line1 line2 JohnDoe blah blah blah line4 line5 ===Desired output file=== line2 line4 Can someone suggest a good way of doing this?

Nevermind. A simple if loop in Excel does the trick.
