Please be clear about your requirements.

So it is the expected behaviour you request in your previous post.
That is the reason why i asked you to be more clear in your requirements.
But to answer your question, since your requirement have changed and you now want that missing sequence number don't get out of the loop :
you just need to remove the || break in the following line :
to
ya i want the script to continue to the next sequence number.
I thought if the while loop is upto 100 the script will go till 100..\yes i want the script to continue untill it finds the last sequence number.
@ctsgnb - Thanks its working absolutely fine...
Slight change i need in the script as it throwing an error on the scrren when i execute your script.
Error -
What i want is, when ever the two files are found (1. or 2. or any with Fe.ok) then the my_script should get executed.This is going pretty well.
But for example if 20.akfjakf file is not available it give message stating
This message should not display on screeen as i cannot deploy such script on production with these messages.
Also becoz on while loop which is "while [ $i -lt 100 ]" on screen it is giving many times such messages if the files are not available.
Any clue how can the script be changed.
Needs to lose the error channel from "ls" to prevent the error messages.
This may ripple further into the logic of the script but I have lost the plot on what the script is meant to do.
