Sir Rob has seen through my subterfuge to get the PIPSYSF and the grep stages into the conversation; well played, Sir! :-) And he is of course correct that a grep approach is not appropriate for solving this problem. I much prefer his LOOKUP ideas. While I have had positive results in my (very

There's value in having common expressions across platforms and environments. Witness the 'ifconfig' command Alan and company created years ago for VM TCP/IP. (Later regretting that it lacked '-a'.) Often the common component is only a portion, but combining segments is trivial. Think outside the
