Passing string from SQL to a BASH script

OS Solaris 10,
DB oracle 10g

Hello,
We currently have a BASH script that runs and moves image files from a remote server to the local db server. A snippet of the code shows that we are picking up all Images that are 'mtime -1'

Code:
some code...
for file in `ssh user@10.200.200.10 'find /u01/bea/madeup/Images -name "*.jpeg" -mtime -1'`
do
scp user@10.200.200.10:${file} /oraworking/madeup/images/orig/
done
...more code

It's simple and it works.

Now, due to development requirements we need a way of picking up those images from different directories within the base directory of /u01/bea/madeup/Images. The plan is to have an 'index' table that will hold the location (path and filename) of the image file and it is this that I would like to read from the table and somehow use in place of the hard coded file path above.
Can I Just do something like this example: (This may work with some tweaking, but it gives you an idea of what i am trying to achieve).

Code:
for file in `ssh user@10.200.200.10 'find /oracle/product/db/10gR2/bin/sqlplus -s /nolog  <<EOF  #Find is just going to try and find something in '/oracle/product/db/10gR2/bin/sqlplus' so this is wrong!

conn / as sysdba

set heading off
set feedback off
set pagesize 0
set linesize 30000
set trimout on
SELECT f.file_path||'/'||f.file_name
FROM fileupload f
INNER JOIN imagelog i
ON f.id = i.fileupload_id;'

EOF`

do
if [ -f ${file} ]
then
        echo "Skipping $file file..."
continue
fi

scp user@10.200.200.10:${file} /oraworking/madeup/images/orig/

done
...more code

Thanks in Advance,

Jonathan

CHECKBASHISMS(1)					      General Commands Manual						  CHECKBASHISMS(1)

NAME
checkbashisms - check for bashisms in /bin/sh scripts SYNOPSIS
checkbashisms script ... checkbashisms --help|--version DESCRIPTION
checkbashisms, based on one of the checks from the lintian system, performs basic checks on /bin/sh shell scripts for the possible presence of bashisms. It takes the names of the shell scripts on the command line, and outputs warnings if possible bashisms are detected. Note that the definition of a bashism in this context roughly equates to "a shell feature that is not required to be supported by POSIX"; this means that some issues flagged may be permitted under optional sections of POSIX, such as XSI or User Portability. In cases where POSIX and Debian Policy disagree, checkbashisms by default allows extensions permitted by Policy but may also provide options for stricter checking. OPTIONS
--help, -h Show a summary of options. --newline, -n Check for "echo -n" usage (non POSIX but required by Debian Policy 10.4.) --posix, -p Check for issues which are non POSIX but required to be supported by Debian Policy 10.4 (implies -n). --force, -f Force each script to be checked, even if it would normally not be (for instance, it has a bash or non POSIX shell shebang or appears to be a shell wrapper). --extra, -x Highlight lines which, whilst they do not contain bashisms, may be useful in determining whether a particular issue is a false posi- tive which may be ignored. For example, the use of "$BASH_ENV" may be preceded by checking whether "$BASH" is set. --version, -v Show version and copyright information. EXIT VALUES
The exit value will be 0 if no possible bashisms or other problems were detected. Otherwise it will be the sum of the following error val- ues: 1 A possible bashism was detected. 2 A file was skipped for some reason, for example, because it was unreadable or not found. The warning message will give details. SEE ALSO
lintian(1). AUTHOR
checkbashisms was originally written as a shell script by Yann Dirson <dirson@debian.org> and rewritten in Perl with many more features by Julian Gilbey <jdg@debian.org>. DEBIAN
