I try to make a script for file conversion. the input file looks like : Normal text, where comma's can appear. Label 0 12,34 2 1,23 The problem is that I want to have the comma's after the Label be replaced with spaces. In vi you can do a search for Label, followed by .,$s/,/ /g but is this also possible in a shell script. In awk there should be a way to have both spaces and comma's as a field seperator. Who knows an easy solution ? Andre
