It may be possible that stdin is getting
hosed by the line:
more "somefile" | grep "some seach string"
...since the pipe redirects stdout to the
stdin of grep. This is just a guess however
since I have not tested this.
Since you're using ksh, you may want to try
opening a new file descriptor (say 3) for the
loop to read from. Again, just a guess.

sqlpus
If I were you...
And if it taking me a lot of time and causing me a headache I'd use awk reading your $file as an input in order to create a file with *.sql and then execute that file from sqlplus, every line in your input file will have the entire command line you want to execute, I know, this is not a very "polite" shell scripting but if it is an emergency I'd use it.Smilie

Try running the script - as a test - with different lines commented in/out in the BODY each time. See the results then.

Also you may want to check that your KSH is at proper patch level. You never know you could run into a weird bug.

hi,

I resorted to creating one sql file with all table definitions in it. I then manualy load the file via sqlplus.
