Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting sql query problem Post 302278675 by ss_ss on Wednesday 21st of January 2009 12:23:09 AM

See with below part im validating the argument that it should exists in bill_period_ref table:

bill_period_input="'""$1""'"
bill_period=`sqlplus uname/pwd@dbname <<eof!
set verify off
set heading off
set feedback off
select bill_period from bill_period_ref where bill_period=$bill_period_input order by 1;
exit
eof!
`
if [ "$bill_period" = "" ]
then
echo "Enter valid bill period"
exit
fi

BUt now i want to validate that the argument passed should exists in bill_period_ref table plus its name should also starts with G so for that i want to use this query:

select bill_period from bill_period_ref where bill_period like 'G%' order by

But when im putting this query in the above code, the code is accepting all bill_period what all are there in bill_period_ref table so not at all validating for the bill_period who doesnt start with G.

Thanks
