Hi

Thanks for ur reply but have little bit doubt

if i have file
ename Mohan
ename2 Mohan
eid 2008
ename Shyam
eid 345

and i will give sed -n -e '/Mohan/ {n; p;}' filename
it wiil give output
ename2 Mohan

here when command finds Mohan it is prinitng next line ename2 Mohan but it should also print eid 2008 as file is also having line ename2 Mohan
