Hello,
I have a problem. I use the following istruction:
ls -lrt Invoice_Line_Items* | awk '{print $9}' > ${lflfile_list}

for insert the name by all file the start with "Invoice_Line_Items", but when the directory don't have this file I have the following messagge error:
"0653-341 The file Invoice_Line_Items* does not exist" and the script don't finish with error. It's possible don't get out messagge?

Thanks for the information,
Luca

PS: I use Korn shell in and the machine is IBM AIX 5L.
