Passing data from csv to script
Hi

I have a bash script as such:

Code:
cat $csvdir/$csvfile | csvdsx -ePlanned \
-iCell:CELLID \
-cCells%BTS:SITEID^Cell:CELLID \
-sCell:CELLID \
--multi-value-field=$paramname \ 
-xCELLID,SITEID \
->$dsxdir/$dsxfile

It basically converts a csv file to a dsx file

My csv file looks like this:

Code:
 
SITEID,CELLID,Measurement Frequencies - Active
1067,1067A,58
1067,1067A,59
1067,1067A,60
1067,1067A,61
1067,1067B,58
1067,1067B,59
1067,1067B,60
1067,1067B,61
1067,1067C,58
1067,1067C,59
1067,1067C,60
1067,1067C,61

I want to pass "Measurement Frequencies - Active" from the csv file to the parameter $paramname in the script.
Can anyone help me
So whatever is in the csv file must get passed to the script

something along these lines.....
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

while IFS=, read foo foo paramname
do
   csvdsx -ePlanned \
       -iCell:CELLID \
       -cCells%BTS:SITEID^Cell:CELLID \
        -sCell:CELLID \
        --multi-value-field=$paramname \ 
        -xCELLID,SITEID \
         ->$dsxdir/$dsxfile
done < $csvdir/$csvfile
