Okay, this is great. I have one more portion of this script I need to figure out. I was considering what command to use to have the user input a version number. I have a question setup to ask the build type, so when this is answered I will have the diff command replace whatever the label for the build currently is, replace it with my build name for that build type and add a V at the end for version. After the build name has been changed, I think I will use the read command to have user input version number, which will be right after the V.

I'll post back on here if I have any more issues with it. Thanks for your help folks, I sincerely appreciate it.
