hint: threads with the subject "Urgent help" tend to get ignored. The urgency is only too you, you should not expect anyone here to provide you with urgent support. This also makes no sense:

I want to display the value of jobid in system command but it is not displaying the value.
Display what? Where? the system() command runs an external application, it does not return anything back to the calling program except the exit status of the application.
