Hola, I can't get awk to run from a program file. From the command line, awk '/Date/' respaldo works fine. If I put: " /Date/ respaldo " in a file (respchk) and run awk -f respchk it hangs. If I put: " #! /bin/awk " on the first line and try to run it with ./respchk I get "No such file or directory". Whats happening? The manual has been no help, so any help from out there will be appreciated. Jim
