Satish,
It depends on the system you are on. The old original awk does not allow parameters
to be passed to it, but the newest can take
-v parameter_name=value
On many systems, the new awk is called 'nawk', but not everywhere.
Try 'man awk/man nawk' on your system and check which one takes the -v flag.
