Marc,

Interesting. Did you have any instance where it couldn't get to work?. That will help me rectify my logic.

Re: ksh script needing an interger cmd. line arg

Didn't have a system infront of me now. But I know where it would be missing. Try this out.

....
echo "${3}.1 + 1 " |bc 2>&1 |grep syntax > /dev/null
............

if [ $? = 0 ]

....

Thanks for letting me know.
