Well that explains why sed was replacing all instances, since there was only one per line.

I am having trouble with some nested conditionals.

Code:
# if compounds were found for the class
if [ $MOLFILECOUNT -gt 0 ]
  then

#   sort list of class structures
    data_sort_rows_headerName.sh  $SETS'_sort_'*'.txt' \
                                  PASS1.txt  \
                                  SORT1.txt \
                                  '_makesdf_'$SETS'_'$MOLFILECOUNT'_'$DATASOURCE'_'$DATE_CODE'.txt'

# if the output file does not exist, use SORT1 to start the file
   if[ ! -f "$OUTPUFILE" ]
   then
      cp  SORT1.txt  TEMPOUTPUT1
   else
      cat TEMPOUTPUT1  SORT1.txt  > TEMPOUTPUT2
   fi

fi

This code is throwing an exception,

line 111: syntax error near unexpected token `then'
line 111: ` then'

I have highlighted the then that the error is referring to. I know I have used syntax like this before, so I'm not sure what the issue could be.

try putting a space after "if":
Code:
if [ ! -f "$OUTPUFILE" ]
