Hi 

I'm writing a shell script to know the tape's expiration date, like
this:


VARIABLE=$(bpmedialist -mlist -U -m $MEDIA_ID|tail +7|\awk '{print
$2}'|sed '/^ *$/d')
Output -->  $VARIABLE=11/06/2005

Unfortunately, some tapes aren't in DB and produce no output in
$VARIABLE BUT they send this message in STDOUT like follow : 
"requested media id was not found in NB media database and/or MM volume
database"

Which commands or functions can I use to capturing the STDOUT value?

Thanks
jm
