need simple script help w/ read

LorI Szabo — Sat, 18 Jun 2005 15:15:39 GMT

my scripting is very weak and we do not have a full time or even part time admin.

I need to ask from a script a persons First Name Last Name and change control number and route this reply/answer to a log file. I think I would use read?
