@Serg true, value ~ "MYVALUE" is wrong, i was just testing (a stupid test). One field is not enough because this is a text file with long lines where the fields are defined by offsets, there is no separator character. So i want to compare either with substr on $0 or with a range like ($5,$6,...$,15) ~ parameterValue.

You are effectively checking same thing against itself, but my understanding is that you want to specify a field number like $1. Is there an example of actual input, output, and actual variable that you can provide ? | |

could you not reverse the operands? "M" ~ value ?
