Simple enough - add the 'eval' before the 'set -A' and all is well. Thanks :b:

How can I get my array to understand the double-quotes I'm passing into it are to separate text strings and not part of an element? here's what I'm working with...

So all the research I've done shows that the reason I'm getting an error message 0403-035 The specified path name is too long is because of a LINE_MAX variable.

The issue is that no where have I...

Thanks, I changed it up a bit to allow for some variables to be passed in but it does basically the same thing (minus the hilighting in Linux for values that changed) that the Linux 'watch' command...

On Linux I could use the `watch` command to loop a command X times. Is there a similar command on AIX? If not, is there a way to write a loop on the command line to do this?

Linux: watch -d -n...

Beauty. Thanks, criglerj.

Correct, but that still exits all the way out of VI. I would like to save and close the second file (foo2) and then be directly back into the first file (foo1).

Here's what I have...

$ vi foo1
- open foo1 and work around for a while. I yank a few lines into a buffer and then :w to save.

Next I :e foo2 to open foo2 and paste my buffer. I :w to...

Thanks for the info, mbb. I had not thought about that, and would be a good solution for just drop commands.

However, what I'm trying to accomplish is to take the DDL in PROD and re-create those...

The period is what I needed. Thanks again for the help, Oombera.

I know this is going to be an easy anwer, but I haven't been able to figure this out - even with the help of the previous posts. I want to go from this

Thank you for the help, the script works. I put the output file name in the done < inputFile part, I didn't realize that was supposed to be in input file.

Thanks for your help, this knowledge...

The only reason I wanted to use vi commands is because that's what I knew how to do. I did not know there was a LINES keyword that would read in a file line-by-line.

How does the script know...

Perhaps there is a better way to do this, but right now this is all I can think of. If there is a better way to do this, all suggestions are welcome.

I would like to take a file and perform the...

I was logging in with the wrong user. I had not setup my Linux login for access to the database. After logging in as the default user, everything worked fine.

I don't know if this is the right forum to ask this, but I've seen some Linux questions. If not, I'll try somewhere else.

I have Red Hat v8 on my laptop and wanted to install DB2. I downloaded...

Thanks for the info. The book I was using told me I could re-direct to the same file. Thanks again.

I have a file called get_columns.sh that I would like to replace $2 with $3. I have the following sed command written that works

sed s/'$3'/'$2'/g get_columns.sh > output.txt

However, when I...

I was putting a \ in there for a carriage return. Should I have that put in a separate line?

Here's the section of code that I'm having problems with (the second 'else' is what's giving me the problems for now)...

We have a ksh script to insert data into our data warehouse. There are multiple if/then/else statements, most are not embedded. In this example, there is an if/then statement, and an embedded...
