Sorry about that. Here are some more details:

I came across this question in an interview. Needless to say I did not clear it.Smilie

Anyway the parameter file wo_location.prm looks like the following:

------------------------------------------------
Code:
[Global]
$$start_date = 02/02/2016 10:21:25.000000
$$last_upd_date= 02/03/2016 16:25:56.000000

----------------------------------------------------
The date format is ddmmyyyy
The script would run when ever we needed to increment the date by one day.
The OS is SUN solaris.

Thanks
