Can you show a small sample of your data, one line that works correctly, and one
or more that don't work correctly?

Hi,
I am trying awk to get the first word from each line in a file : I am doing :
BEGIN {
FS=":"
}
{print $1}
For the first line : it prints the first work. For other lines it prints other
words also. I tried to put in FS as space but that did not help. Can someone
help? I did try google but could only find example like above. Thanks for help.
