Good idea, but I think I figured out what needed to be done.... did a little reading and found the split operator...
Code:
for (i=3;i<=NF;i++)
{
split($i,Arr,",")
total+=Arr[2]
}
Set i=3 cause thats always the first item,price...
<= to the # of fields so it can get the last value
split $i using "," and add it up to get my total.
Arr[2] being the price and Arr[1] being the item...
