Question Script changes required...Pls. help me!!
Hi All,

I'm giving input of four variable. I'm using this script for network field, so I'm defining the example on the same way.

Example Input: $1 =ind00m1 $2=Gi1/1 $3=10.0.0.1 $4=Connectivity from 1 to 2

Applies to following line:

object=$2 msg_grp=SNMP node=$1 msg_text="IF Down $2 $3 $4"

I don't have problem with first 3 variables. My fourth variable is Message text and having mulitple spaces. When I have output $4 is taking the first word only (Ex: Connectivity). I want to print the whole text on my 4th variable.

How can I do that? Pls. help me....

Thanks,
Gobinathan.S

Quote the fourth variable when passing it in, and it will be read as a complete string.
