Guys, I am a new comer to awk. I am trying to do the following. I have a 
data set with 8 fields and 40000 rows. $1 is household id numbers. There
are repetations in $1. What I want to do is to keep the row in which a
household id appears first and delete all other rows with the same household
id. 

How do I do this? 

Whoever is helping me, thank you. Can you please send the solution to my
email address?

Sumon
