How to delete files with no records?

Hi,

I have a file whose size is not zero but it has no records and another which has records. I want to delete all the files that have no records in it (even if size > 0). How do I do it?
I have tried the below option

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
 temp1 = $(wc -l < INVX102C.sf)
 if [ ${temp1} -gt 0]; then
 echo "Data file"
 else
 echo "Empty file"
 fi
 EOJ

But this gives me error as "test: ] missing"
Please advise how can I get my result.

MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)													     MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)

mssql_fetch_object - Fetch row as object

SYNOPSIS
object mssql_fetch_object (resource $result) DESCRIPTION
mssql_fetch_object(3) is similar to mssql_fetch_array(3), with one difference - an object is returned, instead of an array. Indirectly, that means that you can only access the data by the field names, and not by their offsets (numbers are illegal property names). Speed-wise, the function is identical to mssql_fetch_array(3), and almost as quick as mssql_fetch_row(3) (the difference is insignifi- cant). PARAMETERS
o $result - The result resource that is being evaluated. This result comes from a call to mssql_query(3). RETURN VALUES
Returns an object with properties that correspond to the fetched row, or FALSE if there are no more rows. EXAMPLES
Example #1 mssql_fetch_object(3) example <?php // Send a select query to MSSQL $query = mssql_query('SELECT [username], [name] FROM [php].[dbo].[userlist]'); // Check if there were any records if (!mssql_num_rows($query)) { echo 'No records found'; } else { // Print a nice list of users in the format of: // * name (username) echo '<ul>'; while ($row = mssql_fetch_object($query)) { echo '<li>' . $row->name . ' (' . $row->username . ')</li>'; } echo '</ul>'; } // Free the query result mssql_free_result($query); ?> NOTES
Note Field names returned by this function are case-sensitive. Note This function sets NULL fields to the PHP NULL value. SEE ALSO
mssql_fetch_array(3), mssql_fetch_row(3). PHP Documentation Group MSSQL_FETCH_OBJECT(3)
