Thanks for all,you were very helpful.

now take alook at this piece of code:

.
.
.
print $1,FS,$2 >"target"
.
.

this line is from my AWK scipt

later i'll write a SHELL SCRIPT calling this awk script

my question how to make the AWK script use the second argument of the
SHELL SCIRPT as "target"
to be clearer:

>>bash-2.03$ SHELL_SCRIPT inputFile outputFile

what shall I do to make the AWK SCIPT use outputFile instead of a
hardcoded file name "target?

thanks 4 u
