Hi, I've just started on unix shell scripting a few days ago. I tried look for the solution to my problem over the net but to no avail.
The objective of my script is to count the number of records in a particular table from a Oracle database.
Ok, here's my problem, when I run this script:
The system literally prints out the string value of the variable "value".
What I really want is that the variable "value" to display is the number of records in the table.
Can anyone help me on this? 
Thanks
