Code In Vi "sed" substitute word on a specific line

i need to substitute word on a specific line.
I was able to do it on command line like below but it is not working in vi.
command line like below:
Code:
sed -e '8s/table_name/schema.table_name/' file_name.

in vi table_name and schema are my positional parameters that i pass into the
script.

here is what i have in my script.

Code:
Sed -e '8s/$table_name/$schema.$table_name/' file_name > file_new

Thank you
