thanks alot for your quick response, but it is including ^M at the end and also entering a blank line.
If you get ^M and/or empty lines, the problem commes from your input datas and not from the read command.
You can modify your awk command to remove ¨M and empty lines :
Code:
for myvar1 in $(awk -F, 'NF {gsub(/\r/, ""); print $1,$5}' $Filename |tr "a-z" "A-Z" )

Another way :
Code:
awk -F, 'NF {gsub(/\r/, ""); print tolower($1),tolower($5)}' $Filename | \
while read var2 var3
do
   sqlplus -s test/test@test @gur.sql $DefaultProduct $var2 $var3
done >>getdata.tmp

IGAWK(1)							 Utility Commands							  IGAWK(1)

NAME

       igawk - gawk with include files

SYNOPSIS

       igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
       igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).

       AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like

	      @include getopt.awk

       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS

       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES

       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk

       BEGIN {
	    while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
		 ...
       }
       EOF

       igawk -f test.awk
