. ./sample1 20 30

echo "called the script"

namish@france => ./sample2
Calling the first script
30 is abnormal
called the script
/home/intas/namish/shell

thanks for the suggestion ...but
ex:

cat sample1

#!/usr/bin/ksh

#value1=90;
#value2=70;

read val1
read val2

if [ $val1 -gt $val2 ];
then
echo "$val1 is normal"
else
echo "$val2 is abnormal"
fi

cat sample2

#!/usr/bin/ksh

echo "Calling the first script"

. ./sample1

echo "called the script"

now it will ask for the input for val1 and val2 ....thro command line ...instated of this ...the second script should read from the property file ...for the first script input

from here whts the logic to pass the value to val1 and val2 variable..
because I don't have permission to edit "sample1" script ..only I can call this script and do the manipulation from the other script.

bup-restore

bup-restore(1)						      General Commands Manual						    bup-restore(1)

NAME

       bup-restore - extract files from a backup set

SYNOPSIS

       bup restore [--outdir=outdir] [-v] [-q]

DESCRIPTION

       bup restore extracts files from a backup set (created with bup-save(1)) to the local filesystem.

       The specified paths are of the form /branch/revision/path/to/file.  The components of the path are as follows:

       branch the name of the backup set to restore from; this corresponds to the --name (-n) option to bup save.

       revision
	      the  revision of the backup set to restore.  The revision latest is always the most recent backup on the given branch.  You can dis-
	      cover other revisions using bup ls /branch.

       /path/to/file
	      the original absolute filesystem path to the file you want to restore.  For example, /etc/passwd.

       Note: if the /path/to/file is a directory, bup restore will restore that directory as well as recursively restoring all its contents.

       If /path/to/file is a directory ending in a slash (ie.  /path/to/dir/), bup restore will restore the children of that directory directly to
       the  current directory (or the --outdir).  If the directory does not end in a slash, the children will be restored to a subdirectory of the
       current directory.  See the EXAMPLES section to see how this works.

OPTIONS

       -C, --outdir=outdir
	      create and change to directory outdir before extracting the files.

       -v, --verbose
	      increase log output.  Given once, prints every directory as it is restored; given twice, prints every file and directory.

       -q, --quiet
	      don't show the progress meter.  Normally, is stderr is a tty, a progress display is printed that shows the  total  number  of  files
	      restored.

EXAMPLE

       Create a simple test backup set:

	      $ bup index -u /etc
	      $ bup save -n mybackup /etc/passwd /etc/profile

       Restore just one file:

	      $ bup restore /mybackup/latest/etc/passwd
	      Restoring: 1, done.

	      $ ls -l passwd
	      -rw-r--r-- 1 apenwarr apenwarr 1478 2010-09-08 03:06 passwd

       Restore the whole directory (no trailing slash):

	      $ bup restore -C test1 /mybackup/latest/etc
	      Restoring: 3, done.

	      $ find test1
	      test1
	      test1/etc
	      test1/etc/passwd
	      test1/etc/profile

       Restore the whole directory (trailing slash):

	      $ bup restore -C test2 /mybackup/latest/etc/
	      Restoring: 2, done.

	      $ find test2
	      test2
	      test2/passwd
	      test2/profile
