Here is an example to access EMP_ID from EMP table:

##############################

qry_ChkEmpID=`sqlplus -s ${db_conn} <<!
set head off;
set feedback off;
select emp_id from EMP where
emp_name = 'SAM' ;
exit;
!`

export str_EMP=$(echo $qry_ChkEmpID)
echo "Emp Id : " $str_EMP


########################
# Emp ID is stored in the str_EMP variable , db_conn is the connection string.

XtAppGetErrorDatabase(3)					   XT FUNCTIONS 					  XtAppGetErrorDatabase(3)

NAME

       XtAppGetErrorDatabase, XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText - obtain error database

SYNTAX

       XrmDatabase *XtAppGetErrorDatabase(XtAppContext app_context);

       void XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText(XtAppContext app_context, char *name, char *type, char *class, char *default, char *buffer_return, int
	      nbytes, XrmDatabase database);

ARGUMENTS

       app_context
		 Specifies the application context.

       buffer_return
		 Specifies the buffer into which the error message is to be returned.

       class	 Specifies the resource class of the error message.

       database  Specifies the name of the alternative database that is to be used or NULL if the application's database is to be used.

       default	 Specifies the default message to use.

       name
       type	 Specifies the name and type that are concatenated to form the resource name of the error message.

       nbytes	 Specifies the size of the buffer in bytes.

DESCRIPTION

       The XtAppGetErrorDatabase function returns the address of the error database.  The Intrinsics do a lazy binding of the error database and
       do not merge in the database file until the first call to XtAppGetErrorDatbaseText.

       The XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText returns the appropriate message from the error database or returns the specified default message if one is
       not found in the error database.
