That may be good enough, but if you wanted to be very cautious, changing the double quotes to single quotes would be a good idea. Double quoting the command substitution would preserve whitespace, but the embedded newline which seems to be in the db2 output would then cause problems with eval. A workaround for that would be to use tr to convert it to a space.

Take care,

Simple enough - add the 'eval' before the 'set -A' and all is well. Thanks Smilie
