Hi,
I've a list in the following format:
Empdept filedetails buildingNo Area
AAA 444 2 juy
AAA 544 2 kui
AAA 567 4 poi
AAA 734 5 oiu
AAA 444 2 juy
AAB 594 2 kui
AAB 507 4 poi
AAB 764 5 oiu
AAB 444 2 juy
AAB 544 2 kui
AAB 567 4 poi
AAB 734 5 oiu
AAC 444 2 juy
AAC 544 2 kui
AAC 567 4 poi
AAC 734 5 oiu
AAC 444 2 juy
AAC 544 2 kui
AAC 567 4 poi
AAD 734 5 oiu
now this list might grow and I might have 50 AAA empdepts , 40 AAB depts and 40 AAC empdepts and so on...
Now I want to have a script which will pick only 3 (or upto 3) Empdept details from this list.. like
Empdept filedetails buildingNo Area
AAA 444 2 juy
AAA 544 2 kui
AAA 567 4 poi
AAB 594 2 kui
AAB 507 4 poi
AAB 764 5 oiu
AAC 444 2 juy
AAC 544 2 kui
AAC 567 4 poi
AAD 734 5 oiu
Please help me with a shell script which will do this very quickly...
Thanks in advance...
