How to pass Variable from shell script to select query for SqlPlus?
Code:
echo "set echo off"; echo "set feedback off"; echo "set linesize 4000"; echo " set pagesize 0"; echo " set sqlprompt ''"; echo " set trimspool on"; 

Select statement is mentioned below
echo "select res.ti_book_no from disney_ticket_history res where res.ti_status =${STATUS} and res.request_file_id IN (select req.request_file_id from disney_ticket_request_file req  where transaction_date=${TRANSACTION_DATE});") | ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/sqlplus -S tipls/tipls@plsdev)

OUTPUT IN SQL WITH ERROR:
select res.ti_book_no from disney_ticket_history res where res.ti_status =('\''PENDING'\'') and res.request_file_id IN (select req.request_file_id from disney_ticket_request_file req  where transaction_date=09212013)

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00911: invalid character

Error is due to highligted red colour. I need to pass it as a string like 'PENDING' through script

The simplest is to use a 'here-document':
Code:
sqlplus /nolog << EOF
connect user/pass
set pagesize 0 feedback off ...
...
select ...
...
EOF

Scott Can you please be more specific. Do I have to use another script like sqlscript. I am just a begginer so asking. Dont have much idea.

A 'here-document' is a construct you can find information about from the man-page for your shell.

Taking what you posted, something like:
Code:
sqlplus -S /nolog << EOF
connect tipls/tipls@plsdev
set echo off feedback off linesize 4000 pagesize 0 sqlprompt '' trimspool on

select res.ti_book_no
  from disney_ticket_history res
 where res.ti_status = '$STATUS' and res.request_file_id
    in (select req.request_file_id
          from disney_ticket_request_file req
         where transaction_date='$TRANSACTION_DATE');
EOF

I have done some part but dont know how to append the sql output

Header Row:
<html><body><table border='1'><caption>DISNEY BOOKING<br/>Delivery Date: ${TDATE_SLASH}</caption><tr><th colspan="13" bgcolor="black"></th></tr><tr bgcolor='#D3D3D3'><th>BOOKING</th><th>ARRIVAL DATE</th><th>STATUS</th><th>LAST_NAME</th><th>FIRST_NAME</th></tr>" >${DISNEY_REPORT_HOME}/${DISNEY_FILE}

Then The SQL QUERY

sqlplus -S /nolog << EOF  >> DISNEY09212013.xls
connect tipls/tipls@plsdev
