Hi I tried the below shell code. But it removed only first line. Thanks `#!/bin/sh sed -e '1d;$d' /home/file_20140407.txt >>file_20140407_n.txt` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Works for me ... `$ sed -e '1d;$d' jaxws/src/share/jaxws_classes/com/sun/xml/internal/me +ssaging/saaj/soap/SOAPDocumentFragment.java > t $ diff jaxws/src/share/jaxws_classes/com/sun/xml/internal/messaging/sa +aj/soap/SOAPDocumentFragment.java t 1d0 < /* 45d43 < }` [download] Does your file have a newline as the last character ? You'll experience problems if not. A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))	[reply] [d/l]
