typeset VAR2_VALUE='ABCDEF'

# Remove the target file if any
rm -f ${LP_FILE}

# Dump the data values to the file
printf "%-10s" ${VAR1_VALUE} >> ${LP_FILE}
printf "%-8s" ${VAR2_VALUE} >> ${LP_FILE}
# Add '\n' if you want a newline character: printf "%-8s\n"

# Display the results
echo "*** [BEGIN] '${LP_FILE}' file content"
cat ${LP_FILE}
echo "*** [END] '${LP_FILE}' file content"
#-----------------------------------------------------


Hope it helps,
C.
