Hi intelligent beings,

I am trying to write a script that
1. Accepts the following arguments:
store_number
div_number
user_id
div_code

2. Will read from a configuration file to get the Database

3. Use the div_code to determine which value to retrieve from the configuration file

So far the first part of it I wrote as:

store_number=$1
div_number=$2
user_id=$3
div_code=$4

The script to write to the configuration file was written like this:

getline<"store_to_dm.cfg" -------> store_to_dm.cfg is configuration file that I also create

The statement above should be able to read from the configuration file, but how can it get the database out of it?

The third part I just need help in because I am stuck on that part. Please help!!!

Overall for the script I have:
#!/bin/sh
store_number=$1
div_number=$2
user_id=$3
div_code=$4

getline<"store_to_dm.cfg"

Thanks in advance.
