Thanks for the help all, and I apollogize for asking the question
incorrectly,
I ll give it a try again,

this is how the input file looks like
#cat inputfile.txt
############ 20010216_200000 ########### 
220 
190 
180 
190 
210 
180 
190 
190 
190 
180 
The Average time for this ping is: 192 
######################################## 

############ 20010216_203000 ########### 
 The listner is down at this time 
######################################## 

++++++++++++++End of input file+++++++++++  (this line is not part of
inputfile.txt)

I do not want to process the lines with "The listner is down at this time" ,
one above it and one below it. Once this has been taken care of then I want
to pick up the time stamp, seperate it in a following way
"2000::02::16::20::00" and then capture the number from the line with
"Average" and associate it with the time in the following way
"2000::02::16::20::00::192"

In other words I want to read between lines which start with the time stamp
and the next line should have a number only and read untill I see the
average, if this is not the pattern then I do not want to read the pattern.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks to every one in advance. Much appreciated.
