Hi, A basic question: what command should I use look the elements and their format in a table? what command should i use to check what tables there are in a database? Thanks. Shaoji

Thanks PH, it helps.

How could I put a variable as part of a variable? I know I can do this: for i in a b c; do eval a$i=foo$i done echo $aa $ab $ac It will print out fooa foob fooc. But how could I get it using variable? I cannot use echo $a$i or p=\$a$i echo $p any idea? Thanks.

Also thanks to Vgor. You are correct and helpful. In awk, it can happen as follows: 7 8 10 10d 2 3 7 Shaoji

Thanks Vlad. You are right. I think the awk's comparison is the following: If both are numbers, it compares as numbers (not as in "sort" command), so 10>2. If at least one of them is a string, then it comapre as strings (as in "sort" commmand.) so 16d>100. It can explain 2>16d>100>5. The...

Thanks Vlad, I know how to solve this problem. I just don't know how the awk makes comparison. The first example shows, in awk 2>16d>10>2, how could this happen? The second example, why awk treats 16d and 60d differently? Thanks again. Shaoji
