Hello All, The "source" command is much like the "call" command in DOS batch scripting. However, as you've seen, the way you send variables to "source" is a little different, but much like this command in DOS: call batch.bat %1 %2 %3 %4 ... With "source", however, the shell stops the first script from running until the second script (the one being called) is finished. It's really nice when you're doing things in a sequencial (sp?) order like I am doing in the main script. --Sean ...
