just so you know what the actual script looks like.
Code:
. /var/adm/scripts/dfh

INDIR="/drop"
ARCHIVEDIR="/archive_messages/exported"
OUTDIR="/export/manual"
SENDDIR="/export/mbi"
FUUSER="user"
FUGROUP="group"
OPENFILE=`/usr/local/bin/lsof +d ${INDIR}|grep ${FUUSER}|awk -F"/" '{ print $4 }'`

set -x

if [[ -d ${INDIR} ]] ; then
        cd ${INDIR}
        for file in `ls` ; do

DFHNAME=$`echo $file | awk -F. '{ print $1 $2 }'`

                if [[ $file != ${OPENFILE} && `tail -1 $file|awk '{ print $1 }'` = "97" ]]; then
                        chown $FUUSER:$FUGROUP $file
                        echo "$DFHNAME" > /$OUTDIR/$file.tmp
                        cat /$INDIR/$file >> /$OUTDIR/$file.tmp
                        rm -f $file
                        cp -p  /$OUTDIR/$file.tmp $ARCHIVEDIR/$file.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`
                        mv /$OUTDIR/$file.tmp $SENDDIR/$file.`date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S`
                                        fi
        done
fi
