Hi
many thanks for ur quick reply...
i am trying to do this:
ls -st 190_GSTV_HUX** >> /home/gaaadmin/GAAAdapter/gskgaa/test.log
cd ..
check=`awk 'NR == 6 {print $1}' test.log`

if [ $check -eq 0 ]
then
echo "noerror"
else
echo "error present"
fi

but the thing is this condition checks only for the first line in test.log which may or may not be the error log file ...
so my quwstion is how do we get it to check only for the filename which contains error...

hope i m not confusing you
thanks
