grep within ksh program

Hi,
is there problem with grep command when using ksh?
I had the below command:
/usr/bin/grep \""$Mon $NewDD\"" /tmp/timemanager/intlog.$$ >> /tmp/timemanager/log.$$ 2>/dev/null

when I run ksh in debug mode, this command can not grep anything even the data is in the file.

+ /usr/bin/grep "Feb 9" /tmp/timemanager/intlog.12173
+ 1>> /tmp/timemanager/log.12173 2> /dev/null


But when I just type in the above command and it runs fine.( I think I have sh as default shell program at the prompt)

Any help would be apreciated!

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
