If only all of life were that easy
I guess I was looking so hard at the format of the echo statement, I didn't see that it could have been the problem!!! As I read that I heard a very loud "POP" I think it might of been my head coming out of my tail...

Thanks a bunch.
P.S. The printf didn't work. echo -e did.
