Please Dont post a new post unless until it is a new item , I think you posted this problem earlier, It will be easy if you will send it in the same link ..

Otherwise nobody is going to understand what is this

Code:

its a csh script or ksh script or sh script you are trying .. SO please see your last thread regarding this for your answer..
