Parameters in loop

Hi,

I am trying to write a script which will read inputs form user and process those files, I have issue reading the input parameters in a loop. Following is the script...

Code:

I run the script as ./Script.sh 3 table1 table 2 table3

NumberOfTables=$1
let TableCount=1

while [ ${NumberOfTables} -gt 0 ]
do

 TableName='$'$TableCount
 
 db2 "runstats on table ${TableName} and indexes all"

 let  TableCount=TableCount+1
 let  NumberOfTables=NumberOfTables-1

done
exit 0

here I am not able to capture table1 table2 and table3 in the loop it prints TableName as $1 $2 and $3 but not the names that are given as input.

can some one help me on this....
