    awk help

    I am relatively new to using awk. I have a file with 10 identical lines. The last field in each line is a numeric. I want to check each of these lines and if the last field is greater than 500, I want to capture the line and send it in an e-mail. I know how to do this with a single line, but I don't know how to step through all 10 lines. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thumbs up grep out lines with value greater than 500

    Hi,
    You can perform the same with following syntax:

    awk -F" " ' $5 > 500 ' /file/path

    '$5 > 500' means 5th filed with value greater than 500
