They may be a very simple way of doing it in sed but I don't use sed really, anyone else?
Also I don't use solaris (I'm on sco using a bourne shell) but I imagine there is an equivalent option to the -x.
if you type
man grep
it will give you a list of options, look for one that says something like
-x Displays only exact matches of an entire line.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the data file must be write line by line". If it's the output of the echo that you want to write to a file, do this
echo $name >> outputfile.dat
which will append the $name to a file outputfile.dat. However you must remember to initialise the file each time you run the script so at the start put
> outputfile.dat
which will empty it.
Post back with any further problems.

MKERRLST(1) General Commands Manual MKERRLST(1)
NAME
mkerrlst - create system error file
SYNOPSIS
mkerrlst [ -i inputfile ] [ -o outputfile ]
DESCRIPTION
Mkerrlst(1) creates error message files in the format described by syserrlst(5).
With no arguments mkerrlst creates the file /etc/syserrlst from the internal array sys_errlist.
Give just the -o option mkerrlst will create the file outputfile from the internal array sys_errlist.
Given just the -i option mkerrlst will create the file /etc/syserrlst from the input file inputfile.
Given both -i and -o options mkerrlst will create the error message file outputfile from the strings contained in inputfile.
NOTE: error messages are numbered from 0. If the error 0 does not have a message associated with it the first string in inputfile must
still be present.
RETURN VALUE
mkerrlst exits with status of 0 if no errors are encountered. If errors do occur an error message is printed on stderr and the exit status
is 1.
ERRORS
mkerrlst(1) can encounter any of the errors for the open(2), lseek(2), read(2), or write(2) system calls.
SEE ALSO
syserrlst(3) syserrlst(5)
HISTORY
mkerrlst(1), first appeared in 2.11BSD.
BUGS
Error messages can be a maximum of 80 characters.
