Remove the spaces surrounding the = when you assign the variable k. It should read
k=`grep -i....`

Remember you can put a "-x" at the end of your #!/bin/sh statement and it will run the script in debug

HTML Code:

k =`grep -i success /var/seamless/spool/tdr/ERS_200804$date1$i* | wc -l`
echo $k
done

i have added -x for debug , not it is calculating value of k , but its not echoing it , what could possibly be wrong with echo $k

remove the space as allready suggested before...

Code:

k=`your code`

Do you know how to make up the script "cp file1 file2"? If you don't know, do you know of anyone else that could help me? I need a response as soon as possible, I greatly appreciate any help you can give me.
