Bug

Yesterday i am not able to check your code correctly, because i was using my mobile...

From above it clears that you still have lot doubts which needs to be cleared.

Let see how much clear this..

Code:
PATH525[1]="/eos/uscms/store/user/pooja04//analysis2012/525/data/doubleele/2012/datav1/"
PATH525[2]="/eos/uscms/store/user/pooja04//analysis2012/525/data/doubleele/2012/datav4/"
PATHZY[1]="/eos/uscms/store/user/pooja04//analysis2012/533/mc/zgammav1/"
                                                                                                                                                         
PATH533[1]="/eos/uscms/store/user/pooja04//analysis2012/533/data/datav14/"

CopyFiles() {
    PATHNAME="$paths"  # Assuming you are using $paths as by default path for PATHNAME.
    
    if [ "$2" = "525" ]; then
        PATHNAME=${PATH525[1]} # PATH525 this is an array... and here you have to decide which element of an PATH525 array needs to be printed as it has 2 values.
    elif [ "$2" = "533" ]; then
        PATHNAME=${PATH533[1]} # PATH533 this is an array...
    elif [ "$2" = "ZY" ]; then
        PATHNAME=${PATHZY[1]} # PATHZY this is an array...
    fi
    echo "pathname is $PATHNAME"
    
    #PATHNAME is variable. not an array. So we can skip the for loop here.. directly use PATHNAME for the checking directory.     
    
    if [[ ! -e "dest_path/$PATHNAME" ]]; then
    ls -ltr "$PATHNAME" | grep root | awk '{print string path $9}' string="$CONSTANT" path="$PATHNAME"  >> "$FileName"
              echo "$PATHNAME is copied"
    else
    echo "Check the FileName in $PATHNAME"
    fi
    }

Let me know if you still have any doubts..Smilie

CLISP-LINK(1)						Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu					     CLISP-LINK(1)

NAME
clisp-link - link a new external module to CLISP[1]. SYNOPSIS
clisp-link [create] [module] [file...] clisp-link [add] [source] [destination] [module...] clisp-link [run] [source] [module...] clisp-link [install] [module...] DESCRIPTION
This shell script operates on CLISP[1] module sets and linking sets: o creates new module sets out of source files o adds module sets to a linking set to produce a new linking set o runs CLISP[1] with module sets added o Only in CLISP[1] built without configure flag --without-dynamic-modules. installs new module sets for general use OPTIONS
create The command $ clisp-link create module file ... creates a module set in module directory which refers (via symbolic links) to files file... The files are expected to be modules of their own. add The command $ clisp-link add source destination module ... combines the linking set in directory source and the modules in directories module... to a new linking set, in the directory destination which is newly created. run The command $ clisp-link run source module ... runs the linking set in directory source, with the modules in directories module... Unless CLISP[1] has been built with the configuration option --without-dynamic-modules, the loading will be performed using SYS::DYNLOAD-MODULES. Otherwise - this is much slower - a temporary linking set will be created and deleted afterwards. install Only in CLISP[1] built without configure flag --without-dynamic-modules. The command $ clisp-link install module ... installs the modules in directories module... into CUSTOM:*LIB-DIRECTORY* or, if it is not writable to the user (e.g., if a system-wide CLISP[1] installation is used and the user does not have administrative privileges), into CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY*. Variable CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY* is initially set to (MERGE-PATHNAMES[2] ".clisp/" (USER-HOMEDIR-PATHNAME[3])) if that directory exists, and can be reset in the RC file. Note Do not add CUSTOM:*USER-LIB-DIRECTORY* to CUSTOM:*LOAD-PATHS* or under any element thereof. Use REQUIRE instead of LOAD to load dynamic modules. For this command to work, each module directory must contain a Makefile with a clisp-module-distrib target which uses LN to distribute the files necessary to run the module into destdir. This is in addition to the general requirement that link.sh is present. EXAMPLES
See Section 32.2.6, "Example". FILES
clisp-link needs a "link kit" directory containing: o "modules.c" o "clisp.h" clisp-link expects to find these files in a subdirectory linkkit/ of the installation directory (i.e., CUSTOM:*LIB-DIRECTORY*) which it acquires by running $ `dirname $0`/clisp -b This can be overridden by the environment variable[4] CLISP_LINKKIT.
