Thanks for that, Mike042. I should have explained myself better earlier on. I'm fully aware of ~/.profile, ~/.bashrc, and ~/.cshrc. This carrying over of environment variables is supposed to occur after the login.
At first, I thought my dba wanted to redefine environment variables from a script and have that carry over once the script was finished. Apparently I misunderstood, because now he's talling me he wants to carry environment variables from script to script.
