csv file.
1,2,3,abc
2,3,4,def
3,4,5,abc
3,4,2,def
6,7,9,abc.
I need to read that file and get the lines of file containing abc.

grep the string lines from the file

grep ",abc" file.csv
Sounds enough? Or to be sure it finishes with abc:
grep ",abc$" file.csv
(in this case the last one in your example won't match due to the full stop at the end)

2+1 for the correct pattern. Don't need
catthough:grep ",abc" file.csv. Another way to match just the word "abc" and not "Aabc" or "abcd" is to use word anchors:'\<abc\>'– glenn jackman – 2014-01-24T15:47:42.510
