Hi,
I agree I was making a mistake by putting 'space' between + and statement.
But still I am not able to assign the day to variable. I tried using excape character also i.e \' \' ' but no use.
Now my command looks like
DAY='date | cut -f 1 -d \' \''
I am using ksh. and on SUn SOlaris.
thanks
Himanshu
