echo 'ABC_D_EQ_XXXXX_YYYY_PRD_UX 05/08/2009 05:47 05/08/2009 05:50 IN 13412850/0' | sed -e "s|$parent_job_rep|$child_job_rep|g"

This is working , but when I add grep... instaed of echo , sed does not substitute the string with child_job_rep.See the result below. Any clues ?

$ grep $parent job_tree.lst | tail -1|sed -e "s|$parent_job_rep|$child_job_rep|g"
ABC_D_EQ_XXXXX_YYYY_PRD_UX 05/08/2009 05:47 05/08/2009 05:50 IN 13412850/0
