echo problem

Hi,

I have given the following statement in a script to put the values of variables (VAR1, VAR2,...) in a file.

echo " $VAR1 $VAR2 $VAR3 $VAR4 $VAR5" >> filename

But the output is not coming properly. Variables VAR5, VAR4 are replacing the first (VAR1, VAR2,..). I can't figureout the reason. Say

VAR1=50; VAR2=51; VAR3=52; VAR4=53; VAR5=54;

Output: 53 54 52 (Something like this)

But if you echo each variable separately it is echoing properly.

Can anyone help me on this ?

Thanks
Ben
