Ouch,

I get the error:
sed: command garbled: 1iEXEC PR_DbConfigStart 'test.txt', '10', 'DESCRIPTION'

when I try this.

Here is the script im using

#!/usr/bin/ksh
FILENAME=test2.txt
TMP=.$TMP
TMPFILENAME=$FILENAME$TMP
sed -e "1i\
EXEC PR_DbConfigStart 'some text', '10', 'DESCRIPTION' " < $FILENAME >$TMPFILENAME
