Need a simple file based utilty for shell scripts

Hello,

I'm wondering if you may know of a simple file based UNIX utility that can be used to store and retrieve values on a flat file, let's say i have a file called "kru", i'd like to be able to specify a request like:
while(....)
if [ kru.fld1 = $stepid ] ; then
kru.fld2 = $rec_cnt
kru.fld3 = $status_code
krul.fld4 = $file_status
fi
done

Basically i'm trying to avoid using Oracle to manage the step by step audit values for a bunch of kshells used to automate the manual load processes for an Oracle database.

Thanks very much for any inisghts! Smilie
