csplit issue
Hello all

The below command works perfeft when executed from the shell prompt.

"csplit -f first Allocation.log.1 "%. Oct 02 .%" {1} "

and generates first00 file.

But it fails if I include the same command in my script.

I am trying to automate some process and this is turning out to be an unachievable task for me...can somebody help me please...it is urgent.

Thanks

exactly what do you mean by it fails? Syntax Error?
