hi
echo "$x" | egrep "AF|GN"
if [[ "$?" -eq 0 ]];
then
echo NO OK
fi
the problem in the above is that it echos $x.
Is there a better if statement that says:
if [ $x contains these characters: AF or GN ]
then
echo NOT OK
fi
thanks

NOTES
Note
In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocicolumntype(3) instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of
oci_field_type(3) for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
