Hi,

I've unix 'INCLUDE' environment variable that initialize as shown below:
/usr/include:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/INC:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_ +Sched/BG/INC/new_infrastructure:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/INC/Co +rba: /users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/Extmodul::/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/B +G/Extmodul/imageMagic/include::/usr/local/mainwin/userx/public/sdk/in +c:/opt2/oracle10.2/rdbms/public::/opt2/oracle10.2/rdbms/demo:/usr/loc +al/mainwin/mfc400/src:/opt/iona/asp/5.1/include:/opt/bea/tuxedo8.1/in +clude:/opt/mqm/inc::/opt/sna/include:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/E +xtmodul/Sun/X25/include::/opt/SUNWspro/prod/include/CC/std

I want to initialize new environment that include only the path that started with "/users/ctbld/" and to remove the other path.

An example, after the manipulation the new Variable should to include only:
NEW_INCLUDE=/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/INC:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_S +ched/BG/INC/new_infrastructure: /users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/INC/Corba:/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/B +G/Extmodul::/users/ctbld/246_EMEA_Sched/BG/Extmodul/imageMagic/includ +e

The Delimiter between the path is ':'

In which command can I get only the relevant PATH (as mention above) in variable (not in array).
Thanks.
