CONCSUB variable has a space

[bgreen]

How do I pass a variable into a consub which contains spaces???

I need to retain its form (like MACHNAM below), not to be broken up.

MACHNAM=THIS HAS A SPACE

Example:


CONCSUB ${FCP_LOGIN} XXCA 'CUSTOM INTERFACES' KRAMER WAIT=10 \
CONCURRENT XXCA XXCLICDLAA "${COMPANY}" "${TWO_TASK}" "${YYYY}" \
"${MACHNAM}" YES "${REMOTE_PATH}" > ${CONC_LOG}

Well the variable is set by a select stsement

MACHNAM=`sqlplus......`

How would you do it now?

VALUE=`sqlplus -silent user/password@instance <<END
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
select name from t1;
exit;
END`

That should be fine. What do you get if you echo "$VALUE" after that line?
