thanks for the posts :)

I have the following statement in script:

find ${LANDING_FILE_DIR}${BTIME_FILENAME_PATTERN2} -print | while read file; do

Thanks a lot.

for file in $(ls -1tr...

The ls may be better then using find since I'm expecting the files to be in the same directory each time....Thanks..:)

Hi - are there sort options with the find command? I don't see any in man. I have a script that is looping through a set a files to be processed and I need to process them in date timestamp order. ...

I agree but the existing .ksh calls an Informatica process that references a specific flat file for a source. It doesn't allow a dynamic flat file source name so I have to replace the existing one...

file names:
