Can't get .kshrc to execute 1

Until my SA changes my setup, I am executing ksh as the last step in my .profile so that I can operate in ksh. However, my .kshrc doesn't seem to get executed. I believe this because it would appear that the "set -o vi" line in the .kshrc has not been executed (i.e. I am not getting "vi" command line editing). I have to manually execute .kshrc from the command line once I am already in ksh to get it to work.

Anybody got any ideas why .kshrc is not being run automatically at start up by ksh?

I am working in a SCO 5.0.6a environment.

TIA
 
pmurray99,

Thank you! That was all it needed! I never did see any notes that this was required in searching the man pages and SCO docs.

Thanks again! [2thumbsup]
