What am I doing wrong here?
First off, I'm using Cygwin on my XP to run the script, so that could be part of the problem.

I modified the script a bit and this works, from the command line,
but no matter how I tried, I could not get it to run from a script.

=================================
for i in ls *.xml; do
cat `$i` | awk -F'"' '
NR==1 {
OFS=FS;
split(FILENAME, x, ".");
prefix=toupper(x[1]"C_");
}
/[Cc][Oo][Uu][Nn][Tt][Yy]/ {
$6=prefix $4;
}
{
print
}'
done
=================================

The first problem, is it is not reading the FILENAME.
The x variable contains only a dash character and "C_".

The second problem is I can't re-direct the output.
I tried using:

/[Cc][Oo][Uu][Nn][Tt][Yy]/ {
$6=prefix $4;
}
{
print
}' > temp
done

but it won't work, it only creates an empty file, yet I can pipe it thru less and it displays to the screen.

/[Cc][Oo][Uu][Nn][Tt][Yy]/ {
$6=prefix $4;
}
{
print
}' | less
done

How can I get it to write to a file?

Thanks for any pointers.
All help appreciated.
