i figured out the answer to the last question i posted myself:

set result = `grep "search string" searchfile | awk '{print $3}' | uniq`

piping through uniq was the ticket.

however, now a new problem arises.

my variable $result = /some/long/unix/directory

i want to use sed to replace it with /some/other/long/unix/directory

the sed command should be something like this:

sed s/$result/"/some/other/long/unix/directory"/ searchfile > newfile 

however this doesn't work. the problem is definitely related to the
"/"es in the unix tree names. anyone know what is wrong with this
sed string?

Thanks,
