Hello,
  I have a text file that looks like this on Linux:

---------------------------------------
^M
01:23:00
^M
23 Oct. 2001     Bobo           Permitted
^M


  I need to filter records based a name (Bobo), but also need the line 
that is two lines above.  For example, I can do:

#  more Log_October_2001 | grep Bobo

  This will give me 22 records for example, anyone know how I can also 
see the line that also has the time stamp?  i.e., two lines above, so I 
can get the following output:

01:23:00
23 Oct. 2001     Bobo           Permitted



Many thanks!!

Robert
