Hi,
I am hoping someone can help - I don't know awk/sub so I'd like some help...with an explanation of how it works if possible..
I need to take the 8th column of a csv and replace any dots (".") with slashes ("/")....
So I know I can use awk to parse the csv file and print the necessary column:
Code:
awk -F "\"*,\"*" '{print $8}' thisfile.csv
How do I add the sub function to replace the print function??
This will be scripted as well...
I appreciate any and all help...
Edit sample string : this, this, this, this, this , this , this , 27.11.2011, this, this, this
I basically need the date in DD/MM/YYYY format
