Thank you so much! I knew it must have been something simple like that. I need a bash scripting book...
Thanks again!
You're welcome.
If you google for 'bash' and 'tutorial' you'll find quite a lot of information out there. Might be worth a look before laying out some hard cash on a small part of a dead tree. I come from a commercial UNIX background, so I'm more comfortable with Korn shell than bash but taking part in all these LQ threads has been quite educational in itself.
