awk/nawk returning decimal values?

[moutaye]

Hi

Running a specific nawk statement over a 17m lines files returns the following:

/bin/nawk: not enough args in .....
input record number 1,25955e+06, file test.1
source line number 1

I'd like to report the line number (in bold above) in decimal not floating so that i can spot it out.

I tried to pass the OTMF variable in the nawk statement to "%.8d" but nothing helped.

Any awk/nawk expert woudl be able to figure this out?

Thanks for your help guys
