It is not a grep error. cdl browse is complaining. Remove the
Code:
| egrep "MID|CBSC|MMADDR"

part. the egrep section IS on the same line as the rest of the command, right?

Did u check PATH variable?
BRO CDL should in the search PATH else it cannot understand it as an action

try this on the command prompt.
echo $PATH
in case this doesnot include the directory where your BRD CDL resides, add it in some environment file say .profile or .zshrc etc so that it will be in effect when you login.

Alternativley you can give the full path of the BRO CDL in the script.
/dir1/dir2/BRO CDL < options > etc..
