Don't you hate when you search for ever, can't find the answer, then as soon as you ask someone else, you find it. The command I was think of was 'rev'. However, I still need some help if you can offer it. rev exists on my HPUX box but not on my Solaris box where the script runs. Anyone know where I can get a similar binary for Sun?
