comparing multiple variables by 'if then'
Hi,
I am a noob at shell scripting.
basically I am trying to compare row counts from 8 tables in different databases. I have managed to get the row counts using awk from the spool files for both databases.
now I have 16 variables with me
for database 1 :
$A
$B
$C
$D
$E
$F
$G
$H
for database 2:
$A1
$B1
$C1
$D1
$E1
$F1
$G1
$H1
now i want to compare the row counts if they r equal....if so, the script shud continue and execute my next script say 'next.sh' lying in the same directory
else it shud give an error and mail to the user.
what i am trying to do is
if $A = $A1 and
$B = $B1
...
... and
$H=$H1
then
all 8 variables must be equal to each other before continuing else the script shud error out.
PLease help

LEARN ABOUT PHP
odbc_fetch_row
ODBC_FETCH_ROW(3) 1 ODBC_FETCH_ROW(3)
odbc_fetch_row - Fetch a row
SYNOPSIS
bool odbc_fetch_row (resource $result_id, [int $row_number])
DESCRIPTION
Fetches a row of the data that was returned by odbc_do(3) or odbc_exec(3). After odbc_fetch_row(3) is called, the fields of that row can
be accessed with odbc_result(3).
PARAMETERS
o $result_id
- The result identifier.
o $row_number
- If $row_number is not specified, odbc_fetch_row(3) will try to fetch the next row in the result set. Calls to odbc_fetch_row(3)
with and without $row_number can be mixed. To step through the result more than once, you can call odbc_fetch_row(3) with
$row_number 1, and then continue doing odbc_fetch_row(3) without $row_number to review the result. If a driver doesn't support
fetching rows by number, the $row_number parameter is ignored.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE if there was a row, FALSE otherwise.
